Why is the external pointer to a string literal lost when it goes out of scope? (C ++)

In the following program:

#include <string>
#include <deque>
#include <assert.h>

struct Foo {
    // member var
    const std::string *m_pstr;

    // ctor
    Foo (const std::string *pS) : m_pstr (pS) {}

    // copy ctor
    Foo (const Foo& other) : m_pstr (other.m_pstr) {}

    // swap
    void swap (Foo &other) { std::swap (m_pstr, other.m_pstr); }

    // assignment operator
    Foo& operator=(Foo tmp)
    {
        this->swap (tmp);
        return *this;
    }

    // dtor
    ~Foo () {}
};


struct FooQueue {
    // member var
    std::deque<Foo> m_q;

    void Enqueue (const Foo &f)
    {
        m_q.push_back (f);
        assert (*(m_q.front().m_pstr) == std::string("Hello")); // This Passes
    }

    void Enqueue (const std::string &s)
    {
        Foo f (&s);
        Enqueue (f);
        assert (*(m_q.front().m_pstr) == std::string("Hello")); // This Passes
    }
};


void ProcessEvent (FooQueue &fq)
{
    fq.Enqueue ("Hello");
    assert (*(fq.m_q.front().m_pstr) == std::string("Hello"));  // This Fails
}


int main (int argc, char* argv[])
{
    FooQueue fq;
    ProcessEvent (fq);
    return 0;
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

the assertion inside the ProcessEvent () function fails and I don't know why. I would expect the string literal "Hello" in the fq.Enqueue () argument to persist across changes in scope (because of this ), and I would expect the pointer member m_pstr to continue to point to this string literal as well through changes in scope. Can someone enlighten me?
