trivial or non-trivial object

[baibaichen]

hi, i am reading a C++ book, it mentions a term non-trivial object.
what i understand is:
if a object has:
a) trivial constructor
b) trivial assignment operator
c) trivial destructor

then it is a trvial object, otherwise it is a non trivial obect, right?

thanks

"Trivial object" is not a term defined by the standard or in common use as a
technical term. It probably means just what it says, like, "green bird".

"trivial object" is not a standard C++ term. He is probably refering to POD
or not. POD being plain old data.
