there should be

void ptr_container::operator=( auto_ptr<ptr_container> ) already. Is it not what you expect?

You've said about assignment operator the following:

well, it does lead to a conversion sequence instead of a direct call to the constructor, so it might not be that bad >to add the operator.

So my comment was based on that statement. BTW what's the rationale returning void instead of ptr_container & ? -- Pavel Chikulaev
