Saying class is equivalent to saying "struct" with making the default
access be private.  Therefore the above declares Myclass as having a
private data member named _val.  Therefore it is not a POD type, since
a POD cannot have a private data member.

You probably wanted to say "struct Myclass" and not "class Myclass".
