After reading this article on Herb Sutter's blog, I experimented a bit and ran into something that puzzles me. I am using Visual C++ 2005, but I would be surprised if this was implementation dependent.
Here is my code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
struct Base {
//Base() {}
~Base() { cout << "~Base()" << endl; }
};
int main()
{
const Base & f = Base();
}
When run, it displays "~Base()
" twice... But if I un-comment the constructor, it displays it only once!
Does anyone have an explanation for this?
