CppUnitTestApp: Exception assignment fails!

[Wolfgang Stoecher]

When trying the unit tests for cppunit itself one test fails in my installation (v 1.6.2, VC++ 6.0, Win2000):
ExceptionTest::testAssignment()

It seems that Exception::operator=() changes the virtual function table to the base class (std::exception) and so calling what() on other returns "Unknown Exception".

What is going wrong?

thank you,

Wolfgang

btw: I just found out that commenting out the call to the base class resolves the problem for me. But still: what is going on?

thank you,
Wolfgang
--------------
Exception::operator=( const Exception& other )
{
//  SuperClass::operator= (other);
...
this code works!
