Question

Declaring a copy constructor doesn’t suppresses the compiler generated copy assignment operator.

(a) True

(b) False

I got this question in an interview.

I need to ask this question from Assigning Objects in chapter Assigning Object, Pointer to Objects, Passing and Returning Object of Object Oriented Programming

Answer 1

Correct option is (a) True

To explain: Even if the programmer doesn’t define or even if they define the copy constructor. The compiler still generates a copy assignment operator. It doesn’t gets suppressed.
