Usually a constructor with one parameter is used as conversion operator.
Is it possible to supress this. For example

class prop 
{
  ....
  public:
    prop();
    prop(const gen_op&);
    prop(const prop&);
    ~prop();
    ....
}

Now each gen_op would be automaticly converted to a prop. I don't want
this, but I need a explicit conversion routine.

Is there a way in C++ to do this.

Thanks.

Tilo
