C++ :: Copy Constructors In Inheritance

#include <iostream>
using std::cout;
using std::endl;
class CBox // Base class definition
{
public:
// Base class constructor
explicit CBox(double lv = 1.0, double wv = 1.0, double hv = 1.0) : m_Length(lv), m_Width(wv), m_Height(hv)

[Code] .....

This example produces the following output:

// Derived class copy constructor
CCandyBox(const CCandyBox& initCB): CBox(initCB) {
std::cout << std::endl << "CCandyBox copy constructor called";
// Get new memory
m_Contents = new char[ strlen(initCB.m_Contents) + 1 ];
// Copy string
strcpy_s(m_Contents, strlen(initCB.m_Contents) + 1, initCB.m_Contents);
}

It will work right? Cause when I do "CBox(initCB)" it only sends the BASE part of the derived object to the base class copy constructor, is it copy or default?
