Hi Tommy,

In C++, every class some freebies.  If you write this...

class Foo
{
};

...the compiler generates this...

class Foo
{
public:
  Foo();
  Foo(Foo const&);
  ~Foo();
  Foo& operator = (Foo const&);
  Foo* operator & ();
  Foo const* operator & () const;
};

(I presume the definitions of these methods are obvious.)

If you don't want the compiler to generate one-or-more of those functions,
you could explicitly declare them in a private section, and leave them
unimplemented.

HTH,
