Thank you for your clarification.

I just didn't know the fact that ref type member var's could be assigned using '=' before you told me.

It sounds like you'd be assigning the underlying variable the references were initialized with, but you want is to make the reference point at a different variable?

However, I'm also curious on the question you raised for me: :-)

Is it possible to make a class which has reference type members default constructible?

AFAIK, the answer is no. I hope and don't hope there's a different answer.

It sounds like you need to be using pointers instead of references.
