I would not expect a candidate to provide real code from previous employment unless that code was explicitly in the public domain. On the other hand, I would very much expect a candidate to be able to re-use the conceptual frameworks gained in previous employment. This is one of the benefits of experience. Copyright protects the tangible form of original creations, it does not protect intangibles such as knowledge of a framework. And I disagree with perrin. This is not merely an "annoying corporate attitude" but an issue of respecting the legal and ethical rights of a previous employer.
