A: No. this is specified in the definition of the copy constructor itself. It must generate an error if a programmer specifies a copy constructor along a first argument that is an object and not a reference.   Posted by | Posted Date: 3/15/2013 4:06:03 AM

constructor with a single argument creates that constructor as conversion ctor and it can be utilized for type conversion. For instance: class Boo { public: Boo ( int i ); }; Boo BooObject = 10; // assigning int 10 Boo object   Posted by | Posted Date: 3/15/2013 4:07:19 AM
