Making a deep copy

[stdeez]

Would this be considered a deep copy

void Edge::operator =(Edge rhs){
    theEdge.v1 = rhs.theEdge.v1;
    theEdge.v2 = rhs.theEdge.v2;
    theEdge.weight = rhs.theEdge.weight;
}

I'm supposed to overload the assignment operator for Edge class. I'm also wondering will this make an equivalence operator such as == or != valid to use on two Edge class objects as well?

you are taking the parameter by copy, and then reimplementing what the default assignment operator already does.

that last part is a guess, as you didn't bother to post anything that could give us a remote idea of how your class is defined

no, you need to code those.
