implicit or shared copy?

[SkripT]

hi all, I would like to know if the result of the operation:

QImage im2 = im1.scaledToWidth(245);

QImage im2 = im1.scaledToWidth(245);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Generates a deep copy or a shallow copy? The operator= of Qimages generates shallow copies but i'm not sure in the case of the operation above. Thanxs.

scaledToWidth creates a copy of your image.

scaledToWidth creates a copy of your image.

Yes I know, the question is if this copy is a deep copy or a shallow copy?

[Codepoet]

It has to be a deep copy because the underlying data was newly created:

QImage temp = im.scaledToWidth(...);// deep copy
scaledImage = temp;// shallow copy

QImage temp = im.scaledToWidth(...);// deep copy
scaledImage = temp;// shallow copy

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

That's exactly what I expected
