[#](http://github.com/Eelis/draft/tree/9adde4bc1c62ec234483e63ea3b70a59724c745a/source/overloading.tex#L3566)
A [*simple assignment operator function*](#def:operator_function,simple_assignment "12.4.3.2Simple assignment[over.assign]") is a binary operator function named operator=[.](#1.sentence-1)
A simple assignment operator function shall be a non-static member function[.](#1.sentence-2)
[*Note [1](#note-1)*:
Because only standard conversion sequences are considered when converting
to the left operand of an assignment operation ([[over.best.ics]](over.best.ics "12.2.4.2Implicit conversion sequences")),
an expression x = y with a subexpression x of class type
is always interpreted as x.operator=(y)[.](#1.sentence-3)

[*Note [2](#note-2)*:
Since a copy assignment operator is implicitly declared for a class
if not declared by the user ([[class.copy.assign]](class.copy.assign "11.4.6Copy/move assignment operator")),
a base class assignment operator function is always hidden by
the copy assignment operator function of the derived class[.](#2.sentence-1)

[*Note [3](#note-3)*:
Any assignment operator function, even the copy and move assignment operators,
can be virtual[.](#3.sentence-1)
For a derived class D with a base class B for which a virtual copy/move assignment has been declared,
the copy/move assignment operator in D does not overrideB's virtual copy/move assignment operator[.](#3.sentence-2)
[*Example [1](#example-1)*: struct B {virtual int operator= (int); virtual B& operator= (const B&);};struct D : B {virtual int operator= (int); virtual D& operator= (const B&);};
D dobj1;
D dobj2;
B* bptr = &dobj1;void f() { bptr->operator=(99); // calls D::operator=(int)*bptr = 99; // ditto bptr->operator=(dobj2); // calls D::operator=(const B&)*bptr = dobj2; // ditto dobj1 = dobj2; // calls implicitly-declared D::operator=(const D&)} — *end example*]
