Proposal for a way to define constructors for {} type initialisation.


The constructor defining such an initialisation includes brackets inside
the parenthesis:


SomeType( { const T * const input, const size_t SIZE } );


input is the initialisation sequence and SIZE is the length of the
initialisation sequence.


An example with a definition:



class SomeType
{
   // ...
   public:
   // ...
   SomeType( { const int * const input, const size_t SIZE } )
   {
         for(size_t i=0; i<SIZE; ++i)
         {
                 // assignments from input
         }
   }

   // ...
};



int main()
{
         SomeType obj = {1,2,3,4};

         // ...

         SomeType *p=new SomeType( {1,2,3,4,5} );

         // ...

         delete p;

         // ...
}
