[Bug c++/20142] New: implicity assignment with multi-dimensionnal array members

[bernard dot maudry at topgraphx dot com]

Problem:
If a struct has a member which is a multi-dimensionnal array of class with an
explicit assignment operator, a trivial implicit operator is generated instead
of a non trivial one.

Code:
//
#include <stdio.h>

class Manager
{
  public:
    Manager (void);
    Manager (const Manager &);
    ~Manager (void);
    Manager &operator= (const Manager&);
  private:
    /// The underlying data
    int ptr_;
    static int Count ;
};

typedef Manager ArrayString[2];
typedef ArrayString ArrayOfArrayString[2];
struct  DataItem
{
  ArrayOfArrayString field;
};

int Manager::Count = 0 ;
Manager::Manager (void) :  ptr_ (0) { }
Manager::Manager (const Manager &rhs) : ptr_ (rhs.ptr_ + 100) {}
Manager::~Manager (void) { printf ("Destructor: Ptr %d\n", ptr_) ; }
Manager& Manager::operator= (const Manager &rhs) {
  ptr_ = rhs.ptr_ + 1 ;
  Count++ ;
  printf ("Assignment %d\n", Count) ;
  return *this;
}

void Check (const DataItem & item)
{
  DataItem item_1 ;
  DataItem item_2 ;

  item_1 = item ;
  item_2 = item ;
}

int main (int argc, char ** argv)
{
  DataItem item ;

  Check (item) ;
}

Build line :
g++ -O0 -g -o assign assign.cpp

Output:
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0
Destructor: Ptr 0

Assigment operator of class Manager was never called.
