I am having problems with as to Glib::Timer seems to be no copyable
on the code bellow
#ifndef _TIME_KEEPER_H_
#define _TIME_KEEPER_H_
#include <glibmm/datetime.h>
#include <glibmm/timer.h>
class Time_Keeper
{
public:
void start_timer(){ /*timer.start();*/ };
void stop_timer(){ /*timer.stop();*/ };
void reset_timer(){ /*timer.reset();*/ };
std::string display_timer() { return "" /*( std::to_string(((int) (timer.elapsed()/3600)))+\
":"+std::to_string(((int) (timer.elapsed()/60)))+\
":"+std::to_string(timer.elapsed() ))*/; };
//const std::string hasheable (){ return (( const std::string) display_timer()); };
//Time_Keeper(){ start_time = Glib::DateTime::create_now_local(); };
//bool operator == ( Time_Keeper *t) { return t == this; };
protected:
private:
Glib::DateTime start_time;
Glib::TimeSpan elapsed_time;
//Glib::Timer timer;
};
#endif // _TIME_KEEPER_H_
if I try to uncomment the timer variable I immediately get the error
.../time_keeper/src/u-i-controller.cc:71:41: error: use of deleted function ‘Time_Keeper& Time_Keeper::operator=(const Time_Keeper&)’

It seems to be deliberately enforced for some reason, but is there some workaround?
I was trying to show a couple of timers on the interface, which requires managing objects
