[Bug c++/37720] New: Copy constructors do not work with std::vector as they should

[ivranos at freemail dot gr]

The following code:

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <cstddef>


struct SomeClass
{
    typedef std::vector<int> TypeVector;

    TypeVector vec;

    enum { VectorSize= 10 };

    public:

    SomeClass();
    SomeClass(const SomeClass &);
};



SomeClass::SomeClass():vec(VectorSize)
{
    using namespace std;


    for(TypeVector::size_type i= 0; i< vec.size(); ++i)
    {
        vec[i]= i;

        cout<<vec[i]<<"  ";
    }

    cout<<"\n\n";
}


SomeClass::SomeClass(const SomeClass &arg):vec(arg.vec) {}



int main()
{
    using namespace std;

    const size_t SIZE=10;

    typedef vector<SomeClass> Vector;

    cout<< "\nCreating vector with "<< SIZE<< " SomeClass objects..."<< endl;
    Vector vec(SIZE);

}


produces 10 ints instead of 100:

Creating vector with 10 SomeClass objects...
0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

Furthermore, if the copy constructor is not defined explicitly, the program
compiles and produces the same output.
