handle arrays from object

[Stauricus]

hello everybody
i'm wondering why doesn't this work. i just create an array in class declaration, and try to assign values to it in the object constructor...

class Foo{
  public:
  int numbers[4];
  Foo(){
    numbers = {1, 2, 3, 4,};
  }
  ~Foo();
};

int main(){
  Foo foo;
  return 0;
}

i get the error:

assigning to an array from an initializer list|

thanks in advance!

Hmm... I think it may be due to the extra comma in the list in the assignment.

[rmxhaha]

you cannot use that kinda of initial value unless it is initialized when declared

This code bellow doesn't work

int main(){
    int n[4];
    n = {1,2,3,4};
    return 0;
}

so just initialized them

class Foo{
  public:
  int numbers[4];
  Foo() : numbers({1, 2, 3, 4}){
  }
};

int main(){
  Foo foo;
  return 0;
}

i believe you can't initialize the array in the class declaration you have to do it in a function. also i don't believe you can't initialize it in the default constructor either.
