Need help with simple copy constructor

[Robotics Guy]

I'm a little confused about copy constructors and could use some help. Here's my situation: I have two classes, A and B. Class B is a child of class A. Class A looks something like this:

class A
{
public:
   A::A(); // constructor
   
   // some other functions

private:
char* name; // the name of the object is stored in a character array
};

Class B just has some more functions and more data. My question is how do I properly implement a copy constructor, since class A has it's name stored in the heap? I know a copy constructor is needed, but I'm not quite sure how to do it. If I create a copy constructor and inside it dynamically allocate memory and copy the name over for the new object, do I also have to copy all of the data members over?

Thanks for your advice
