Bug ID: 66501 Summary: Default move assignment does not move array members Product: gcc Version: 5.1.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: john.lindgren at aol dot com Target Milestone: --- In the following code, main() should return 0 (and did with GCC 4.8.2). With GCC 5.1.0, main() instead returns 2. It seems that the compiler-generated Container::operator=(Container&&) does not call Object::operator=(Object&&) as it ought. So the line "container=Container()" line does not subtract 2 from total_size as would be expected. int total_size; struct Object { int size = 0; Object () = default; ~Object () { total_size -= size; } Object (const Object &) = delete; Object & operator= (const Object &) = delete; Object (Object && b) { size = b.size; b.size = 0; } Object & operator= (Object && b) { if (this != & b) { total_size -= size; size = b.size; b.size = 0; } return * this; } void grow () { size ++; total_size ++; } }; struct Container { Object objects[2]; }; int main (void) { Container container; // grow some objects in the container for (auto & object : container.objects) object.grow (); // now empty it container = Container (); return total_size; } gcc -v gives: Using built-in specs.
