This, in turn, may be owned by yet another. </p> <p>Ownership simply reflects a natural relationship. For example, a timer is owned by a thread and a thread is owned by a process. These objects are all instances of classes derived from <xref href="GUID-9230EF62-376A-389C-B720-7C1EDCB7EA97.dita"><apiname>CObject</apiname></xref>. </p> <p>A reference counting object assigns ownership of itself to another reference counting object using <xref href="GUID-9230EF62-376A-389C-B720-7C1EDCB7EA97.dita#GUID-9230EF62-376A-389C-B720-7C1EDCB7EA97/GUID-992FB670-72FC-31CA-9DE9-C7918169C022"><apiname>CObject::SetOwner()</apiname></xref>.
