<div style="word-wrap:break-word">New with C++11 you can explicitly delete these methods. It may give better compiler error messages. It may be worth the try compile to give a useful error message to users.

<div>I messed a bit with in in SimpleITK, though I don't think I turned it on:</div>
<div><a href="https://github.com/SimpleITK/SimpleITK/blob/master/Code/Common/include/sitkNonCopyable.h#L60">https://github.com/SimpleITK/SimpleITK/blob/master/Code/Common/include/sitkNonCopyable.h#L60</a></div>

<div>I think it would make the change to the newer C++ code easier.</div>

<div>I like the idea -- it is more explicit, and it saves time. What do members of the ITK community think of an itkDisableCopy(MyClass) macro?</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hi Folks,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>On the VTK developer list, I recently discussed the introduction of a new VTK macro named "VTK_DISABLE_COPY" [1][2] that would allow to easily disable assignment and copy constructor in VTK class deriving from vtkObject. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Note that disabling these constructors for class deriving from vtkObject IS mandatory, it has to be done. You probably already copied this two constructor lines over and over ... </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This macro would be similar to what is done in Qt with Q_DISABLE_COPY. For details [3]</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For example, to declare the class MyClass, you would do .... </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>// -----------------</div>
<div>
<div>class MyClass : public vtkObject</div>
<div>{</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> private:</div>
<div> VTK_DISABLE_COPY(MyClass)</div>
<div>};</div>
<div>// -----------------<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>instead of </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>// -----------------<br>
</div>
<div>class MyClass : public vtkObject</div>
<div>{</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> private:</div>
<div> MyClass(const MyClass &);</div>
<div> MyClass &operator=(const MyClass &);</div>
<div>};</div>
</div>
<div>// -----------------<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The more people reply to this email, the more chance we will have to see this macro added to VTK6. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Let us know what you think.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
