C++ template copy constructor on template class

Question

I have a template class that has a template copy constructor. The problem is when I instantiate this class using another instance of this class with the same template type,

Answer 1

When you do not have a copy constructor in you code, the compiler will implicitly generate it. Therefore when this line is executed:

MyTemplateClass instance2(instance);

A copy constructor is being executed, though obviously not yours. I think that templating has nothing to do with it.
