[vtkusers] copying a vtkUnstructuredGrid ?

[Tim Hutton]

Just to explain, none of the classes have either their copy constructor or 
the assignment operator implemented, this is by design. They are marked 
with the comment "not implemented" and declared as private to stop the 
compiler creating default versions.

I understand the reason is to allow complete binding of VTK to scripting 
languages such as tcl that don't deal with objects - whatever language you 
are using you have to use New() and Delete() and DeepCopy(). It's a bit 
weird for C++ people but enables easy translation to/from the other 
languages, which is fantastic.
