>Description:
gnu c++ compiler returns errors on the f.test and f.test2
calls claiming that the copy constructor needs to be
called but is private. however, foo::foo(bar x)
should be the only constructor that needs to be called in
both cases.
I also confirmed that if you instead modify the foo class
to have a public copy constructor (no compiler error)
that it actually doesn't get called. So this looks like a
bogus constructor namespace check (since the copy
constructor shouldn't and doesn't get called in the end
anyways).
error message:
$c++ privconstr.C
privconstr.C: In function `int main()':
privconstr.C:5: `foo::foo(const foo&)' is private
privconstr.C:20: within this context
privconstr.C:20: initializing argument 1 of `void foo::test(const foo&)' from
result of `foo::foo(bar)'
privconstr.C:5: `foo::foo(const foo&)' is private
privconstr.C:21: within this context
privconstr.C:21: initializing argument 1 of `void foo::test2(foo)' from
result of `foo::foo(bar)'
>How-To-Repeat:
run:
c++ privconstr.C
>Fix:
make private copy constructor declarations public but
don't define them so their use will at least trigger
a link error

State-Changed-When: Sun Aug 12 02:09:20 2001
State-Changed-Why:
The compiler is at fault on f.test (b). But it is right on
f.test2(b): Argument passing by value is copy-initialization
and the copy-constructor needs to be accessible even if it is
elided.
