Map of Parent Type and calling child type copy constructor

[Brandt Dusthimer]

Hi. I'm try to construct a map<int, Shape> so that I can keep a list of
Shapes. Here's a simplified version of my code so far:

Shape
{

};

Nothing wrong with it so far. Keep up the good work!

Cheers! --M

They say true simplicity is genius!

Really? Shouldn't it at least be "class Shape {};" ? Or "struct Shape
{};" ?

Best regards,

Well, I would say that was pretty simple. It won't even compile. Try this.

#include <map>

class Shape
{
};

int main()
{
std::map< int, Shape > ShapeMap;
}
