Strange behavior of copy-initialization, doesn't call the copy-constructor?

C++ explicitly allows several optimizations involving the copy constructor that actually change the semantics of the program. (This is in contrast with most optimizations, which do not affect the semantics of the program). In particular, there are several cases where the compiler is allowed to re-use an existing object, rather than copying one, if it knows that the existing object will become unreachable.

This (copy construction) is one such case; another similar case is the "return value optimization" (RVO), where if you declare the variable that holds the return value of a function, then C++ can choose to allocate that on the frame of the caller, so that it doesn't need to copy it back to the caller when the function completes.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
