[ROOT] Could you explain this RootCint behavior ?

Hi,

I have a problem with copy ctor and RootCint. To illustrate the problem
please see the macro below. It works fine when compiled. Could you
please
 explain this behavior ? Am I doing something wrong ?

Regards,


-------------

#ifndef __CINT__
#include <cstdio>
#endif

class A {
public:
  A() { }
  A(const A& a) { printf("oups...\n") ; }
  virtual ~A() { }
} ;

class B : public A {
public:
  B() { }
  virtual ~B() { }
} ;

class C {
public:
  C() { }
  ~C() { } 
  void test(const A& a) { printf("OK\n") ; }
} ;

void RootCopy(void)
{
  A a ;
  B b ;
  C c ;

  // should produce "OK"
  c.test(a) ;
  // should also produce "OK" but produces "oups... OK"
  c.test(b) ;
}

#ifndef __CINT__

int main(void)
{
  RootCopy() ;

}

#endif
