[lmi-commits] [lmi] master f629a6cf 4/5: Remove comments that have become untrue

[Greg Chicares]

branch: master
commit f629a6cf4837da9a758f72caae6b60ff823fe435
Author: Gregory W. Chicares <gchicares@sbcglobal.net>
Commit: Gregory W. Chicares <gchicares@sbcglobal.net>

    Remove comments that have become untrue
    
    The dtor must be declared explicitly because it must be virtual.
    Declaring a dtor, even with "= default", prevents other special member
    functions from being declared implicitly. (Not yet, for copy functions,
    whose implicit declarations are only deprecated for now; but we're
    designing for the future, as if what is deprecated today had already
    been removed from the language.) Therefore, for them to be available
    at all, they must all be declared explicitly. The removed comment tells
    us that it is appropriate to default all of them; having done so, there
    is no longer any comment to be written.
