In VBA, an assignment of variables of type Object is a shallow copy, an assignment for all other types (numeric types, String, user defined types, arrays) is a deep copy. So the keyword Set for an assignment signals a shallow copy and the (optional) keyword Let signals a deep copy. There is no built-in method for deep copies of Objects in VBA.
C++ objects in general behave like primitive types, so to copy a C++ object one could use the '=' (assignment) operator. There is a default assignment operator provided for all classes, but its effect may be altered through the use of operator overloading. There are dangers when using this technique (see slicing).
If the default behavior ("shallow copy") is actually the intended one, then an explicit definition, although redundant, will be "self-documenting code" indicating that it was an intention rather than an oversight. Modern C++ includes a syntax for expressly specifying that a default function is desired without having to type out the function body.
The default implementation of Object.clone() performs a shallow copy. When a class desires a deep copy or some other custom behavior, they must implement that in their own clone() method after they obtain the copy from the superclass. The syntax for calling clone in Java is (assuming obj is a variable of a class type that has a public clone ...
Copy-on-write (COW), also called implicit sharing [1] or shadowing, [2] is a resource-management technique [3] used in programming to manage shared data efficiently. Instead of copying data right away when multiple programs use it, the same data is shared between programs until one tries to modify it.
"Mama Kelce's cookie" was the fourth-most Googled recipe in 2024, said the report. The cookies first burst onto the scene in 2023, when Donna was seen giving her sons, Jason and Travis, each a ...
Array's destructor deletes the data array of the original, therefore, when it deleted copy's data, because they share the same pointer, it also deleted first's data. Line (2) now accesses invalid data and writes to it. This produces a segmentation fault. If we write our own copy constructor that performs a deep copy then this problem goes away.
The share of adults with literacy skills at the lowest measured levels increased, according to the National Center for Education Statistics’ Survey of Adult Skills.
