/**
 * A simplified syntax for accessing entity components.
 * E.g. to get the @c Position component, write:
 *
 * @code
 * CmpPtr<ICmpPosition> cmpPosition(context, ent);
 * if (!cmpPosition)
 *     // do something (maybe just silently abort; you should never crash if the
 *     // component is missing, even if you're sure it should never be missing)
 * @endcode
 *
 * where @c context is (if you're writing component code) a CSimContext object, or
 * (if you're writing external engine code that makes use of the simulation system)
 * a CSimulation2 object; and @c ent is the entity ID.
 *
 * @c ent can be CComponentManager::SYSTEM_ENTITY (if you're writing a component), or
 * CSimulation2::SYSTEM_ENTITY (for external code), if you want to access the global
 * singleton system components.
 *
 * You should never hold onto a component pointer outside of the method in which you acquire
 * it, because it might get deleted and invalidate your pointer. (Components will never be
 * deleted while inside a simulation method.)
