Suppose I have a class A that does not inherit from anything, has no virtual methods, and has exactly one variable of type T. Does C++ guarantee sizeof(A) == sizeof(T)
sizeof(A) == sizeof(T)
I think C++ should guarantee sizeof(A) == sizeof(T).
Consider bellow situation, C++ should make it works just like in C:
A a[10]; T t[10]; A * ap = (A *) t; T * tp = (T *) a; memcpy(ap, tp, sizeof(*ap));
