The rule of the big three (and a half) - Source code

Temps de lecture : 11 minutes

This is my first article in English on this blog so please be forgiving.

I recently read a C++ article about The rule of the big three (and a half) and I took the time to make sure the code snippets of the article works on my PC.

Indeed the evil is always in the details and it usually help me a lot to practice when I'm learning something new. Anyway, here is what I came with.

Each source code is complete, meaning you should be able to copy paste it directly. I only tested the code under Visual Studio Community 2013. Obviously the source code below only make sense if you read the article and play with your compiler at the same time. In few places I added few comments that may help the reader.

This is a zip with the solution and the projects : RuleOf3.5
