笔记:防止调用拷贝构造函数时的自我拷贝

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

class A
{
public:
    A()
    {
        cout << "A::A()" << endl;
    }

    A(const A & ra)
    {
        cout << "A::A(const A & ra)" << endl;
        if (&ra == this) {
            cout << "init with self" << endl;
            return;
        }
//      copy ra's data to self
    }

    A & operator = (const A & ra)
    {
        cout << "A::operator = (const A & ra)" << endl;
        if (&ra == this) {
            cout << "copy with self" << endl;
            return *this;
        }
//      copy ra's data to self
        return *this;
    }

    ~A()
    {
        cout << "A::~A()" << endl;
    }
};

int main()
{
    A a(*new (&a) A(a));

    return 0;
}

运行打印:

 A::A(const A & ra)
init with self
A::A(const A & ra)
init with self
A::~A()

虽然没人会写"用自身初始化自身"的代码, 但有鉴于上述代码的发生, 还是有必要加判断"if (&ra == this)"检查一下的
