In C++ /CLI is there a "MyClass( ) : this( )" type of constructor like in C#?

[Howard Swope]

Does this type of thing exist in C++ /CLI as in C#



public class A

{

public A(int foo)

{

}



public A( ) : this(0)

{

}

}



???



Thanks

No - calls to same-class constructors are not allowed in C++. Someone else
can probably better explain the rational for this restriction.

It just wasn't considered important enough during the standardisation
process. There are some intricate details in defining exactly what it
means, and when the object is supposed to be "fully constructed".

In the next revision of the C++ standard, this will have been worked
out.
