That's = delete, yes, and you can always make those into linker errors by leaving the function undefined (and sometimes, for member functions, into a compiler error by marking them private). Q_DECL_EQ_DELETE then just lifts those errors to an earlier stage, with a better error message. No functionality is lost. = default, however, has no workaround. We can't even use Q_DECL_EQ_DELETE, because it qualitatively changes the nature of the special member function it's applied to: in one case, it's user-provided, in the other, compiler- synthesized. That can turn non-trivial types into trivial ones, and as I recently learned from Thiago, that may change the way an object of the type is passed by-value to functions. So, we might as well remove Q_DECL_EQ_DEFAULT, I think.
