C++ Initialising fields directly vs initialisation list in default constructor
3 answers
My question is about how the member data with initializer get initialized where there is also a default argument in the constructor.
class InputPlay
public:
InputPlay(std::string s = "test" ) : _s(s) ;
private:
std::string _s = "default";
;
Question:
Is there are going to be 2 times initialization for the variable _s when the construct is called? aka the _s will be initialized by the string literal default and then replace by the default argument "test" in the constructor?

Off-topic: As you do provide the argument by value (so a new object is created anyway), you might avoid copying this object into_s
in favour of moving it:: _s(std::move(s))

No, _s
will only be initialized once. The in class initialization is syntactic sugar for synthesizing a member initializer. If you provide your own member initializer then the compiler will use that instead of synthesizing one for you from the in class initialization.

No. For non-static data member, when both default member initializer and member initializer list are provided, the default member initializer will be ignored. That means _s
will be initialized by the argument s
of the constructor directly.
If a member has a default member initializer and also appears in the member initialization list in a constructor, the default member initializer is ignored.
