VisualStudio 2013 编译器可以很好地处理以下代码，但 clang 5.0 和 6.2 给我一个链接器错误:

#include <memory>

using namespace::std;

class IBase
{
public:
    virtual IBase& operator=(const IBase& other) = 0;
};

class Base : virtual public IBase
{
public:
    Base& operator=(const IBase& other) override
    {
        const Base& b = dynamic_cast<const Base&>(other);
        return *this = b;
    }

    virtual Base& operator=(const Base& other)
    {
        return *this;
    }
};

class IDerived : virtual public IBase
{
};

class Derived : public IDerived, public Base
{
public:
    using Base::operator=;

};

int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) {
    shared_ptr<Derived> d1 = make_shared<Derived>();
    shared_ptr<Derived> d2 = make_shared<Derived>();
    *d2 = *d1;
}

这是构建日志输出:

IBase::operator=(IBase const&)定义在Base中，Derived继承自，Derived 使用 Base::operator=，因此它应该为 Derived 定义，而不是被默认赋值运算符覆盖。

我找到的一个解决方案是删除 IBase::operator= 方法，但这并不理想，因为它是任何继承类都需要实现的方法。

有谁知道区别是什么以及如何解决？如果可能，我想保留 IBase::operator= 方法。

最佳答案

问题是 using 声明不算作用户声明的赋值运算符[namespace.udecl]:

4 - [...] If an assignment operator brought from a base class into a derived class scope has the signature of a copy/move assignment operator for the derived class (12.8), the using-declaration does not by itself suppress the implicit declaration of the derived class assignment operator [...]

(在任何情况下，使用 Base::operator= 都会为您提供参数类型为 Base const& 的赋值运算符，这不是符合条件的参数类型之一复制赋值运算符[class.copy]/17 - T、T&、T const&等)

因为 Derived 没有用户声明的复制赋值运算符，一个是自动生成的，最终调用 IDerived::operator= 调用 IBase::运算符=。请注意，自动生成的复制赋值运算符会调用子对象复制赋值运算符，而忽略虚拟覆盖:

Each subobject is assigned in the manner appropriate to its type:

• if the subobject is of class type, as if by a call to operator= with the subobject as the object expression and the corresponding subobject of x as a single function argument (as if by explicit qualification; that is, ignoring any possible virtual overriding functions in more derived classes); [...]

一个解决方法是写:

    Base& operator=(Derived const& other) { return Base::operator=(other); }

请注意，MSVC 2015 拒绝您的代码，但适用于上述修复:

main.cpp(36): warning C4250: 'Derived': inherits 'Base::Base::operator =' via dominance
main.cpp(14): note: see declaration of 'Base::operator ='
