base class copy ctor and assignment operator

For my base class, the default copy constructor
and assignment operator do the right thing.
However, a child class requires user-defined
methods because of a c-style string. Must I
therefore provide corresponding user definitions
for the base class?

Thanks for your help.
Mike.

No.
