Solved: init bool array

[MikeStgt]

In the 'Prime' thread was a question about initializing an array of type bool, see http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/beginner/250568/#msg1103476

The tutorials (see http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/arrays/) say
"Both these statements are equivalent:"

int foo[] = { 10, 20, 30 };
int foo[] { 10, 20, 30 }; 

In M$VS2010 I tried

bool a[n] { };
bool x[n] = { };

Only the later one is accepted.

Is there anything you want us to discuss or is this just a note to people that still use pre-C++11 compilers?

No. Ah.. yes.

First it is a reply to an unanswered question from another thread. A hint only.

Second, yes, how is it possible to get just the opposite, the complete array initialized with true?

[lastchance]

vector<bool> x( n, true );
or
valarray<bool> x( true, n );

No idea why someone chose to make those a different way round.

Thank you.
