path& operator=(const path& p);	(1)	(filesystem TS)
path& operator=( path&& p);	(2)	(filesystem TS)
template<class Source> path& operator=(const Source& source);	(3)	(filesystem TS)

1) Replaces the contents of*this with a copy of the contents ofp.

2) Replaces the contents of*this withp, possibly using move semantics:p is left in valid, but unspecified state.

3) Replaces the contents of*this with a new path value constructed fromsource as if by overload(4) of thepath constructor. Equivalent toassign(source).

[edit]Parameters

p	-	a path to assign
source	-	astd::basic_string, pointer to a null-terminated character/wide character string, or an input iterator that points to a null-terminated character/wide character sequence. The character type must be one ofchar,char16_t,char32_t,wchar_t

[edit]Return value

*this

[edit]Exceptions

1) (none)

noexcept specification:

3) (none)
