 With `cxListClone()` you can create deep copies of the elements in a list and insert them into another list.

 Refer to the documentation of the [clone-function callback](allocator.h.md#clone-function) to learn how to implement it.
 
+The _simple_ versions of the above functions use an internal shallow clone function
+which uses `memcpy()` to copy the elements.
+If the destination map is storing pointers, this internal clone function uses the current default allocator to allocate the memory.
+
 The functions return zero if and only if all clone operations were successful.
 
 > It is perfectly possible to clone items into a list of a different type.
