What happens in C++ when I pass an object by reference and it goes out of scope?

Question

I think this question is best asked with a small code snippet I just wrote:

#include 

using namespace std;

class BasicClass
{
public:
    B         


        

Answer 1

1. look here: Can a local variable's memory be accessed outside its scope?

2. It will almost will work, since you have no virtual functions, and you don't acces fields of BasicClass: all methods you call have static binding, and 'this' is never used, so you never actually access "not allocated memory".
