Copy constructor question (repost)

[Bart Simpson]

Didn't appear last time, trying again ...

I have a class that has a member that is a const reference:

class MyClass
{
public:
MyClass(const AnotherClass& ac);
MyClass(const MyClass& mc);
//....

private:
const AnotherClass &m_reference ;
};


How do I implement the copy constructor? (I get compilation erros with
this):

MyClass::MyClass(const MyClass& mc)
:m_reference(mc.m_reference)
{
//..
Copy();
}

Compiler error: Error error C3646: 'm_reference' : unknown override
specifier

Fixed: I was missing the ":" at start of the initialization list
