I am trying to transform a class with some time consuming operation by

a_strConfig, CString& a_strXmlOut):
pThis(a_pThis),
strConfig( a_strConfig ),

CProvisioning* pThis;
const CString& strConfig;
CString& strOut;

The problem I get is with m_thrParam = ThreadParam(this, strConfig,
strXmlOut); because I get :
error C2582: 'operator =' function is unavailable in
'CProvisioning::ThreadParam'
1) First I don't understand why I need to overload =
The compiler cannot generate one because you have reference members.
Once initialised (during construction), a reference cannot be reseated.
2) How can I fix it ?
You need to overload the assignment operator and decide what to do with
the 'strConfig' member (e.g. leave it alone) and the 'strOut' member.
*An example* of your operator= might look like this:
struct ThreadParam
{
...
ThreadParam& operator=(ThreadParam const& other)
{
pThis = other.pThis;
return *this;
}
};
V
The problem is once I run :
m_thrParam = ThreadParam(this, strConfig, strXmlOut);
strConfig is a valid reference but strXmlOut is NULL ...
