Lars> Now realize that you have to use a shared_ptr instead. Actually, copying occurs, but I do not want it to. Is it possible to add an object to a container without copying it? It seems that Myobj obj(foo, bar); myvec.push_back(obj); makes a copy of the obj object. Can I avoid it? So, if I cannot avoid copying, would it be a reasonable alternative to define an operator= for MenuItem that does _not_ copy the Menu pointer? I do not need that, after all. JMarc
