[Insight-users] How to copy ITK objects?

[Tobias Heimann]

Hi all,

Why is it that most ITK objects don't have usable assignment operators?
In the classes that I'm interested in (e.g. itk::Mesh), the assignment 
operator is declared private and "purposely not implemented"... I 
suspect there is a method behind that, but I don't get it.
Any help?

Thanks,
Tobias
