Suppose we have this class:
class X {
public:
explicit X (char* c) { cout<<"ctor"<<endl; init(c); };
X (X& lv) { cout<<"copy"<<endl; init(lv.c_); };
X (X&& rv) { cout<<"move"<<endl; c_ = rv.c_; rv.c_ = nullptr; };
const char* c() { return c_; };
private:
void init(char *c) { c_ = new char[strlen(c)+1]; strcpy(c_, c); };
char* c_;
};
and this sample usage:
X x("test");
cout << x.c() << endl;
X y(x);
cout << y.c() << endl;
X z( X("test") );
cout << z.c() << endl;
The output is:
ctor
test
copy
test
ctor <-- why not move?
test
I am using VS2010 with default settings. I'd expect the last object (z
) to be move-constructed, but it's not! If I use X z( move(X("test")) );
then the last lines of the output are ctor move test
, as I'd expect. Is it a case of (N)RVO?
Q: Should the move-ctor be called according to the standard? If so, why isn't it called?
