Hi everybody,
I'm a total beginner and I have the following problem:
I have an array of objects instantiated from a class that has member 
pointers to dynamically allocated data. This class has also the usual 
overloaded operator=. I have to sort this array and I need to do some 
swapping. But swapping by "deep copy" seems useless to me in this case, 
thus is it possible somehow to override the overloaded operator= and 
use just for the swapping the normal operator =? I could use memcpy for 
a bitwise copy,  but it seems to be significantly slower, especially 
for small objects.
Thanks in advance,
Francesco
