列表初始化和失败的initializer_list构造

Question

超载分辨率低于失败clang35 -std=c++11编译：

#include <iostream> 
#include <string> 
#include <initializer_list> 

class A 
{ 
public: 
    A(int, bool) { std::cout << __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ << std::endl; } 
    A(int, double) { std::cout << __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ << std::endl; } 
    A(std::initializer_list<int>) { std::cout << __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ << std::endl; } 
}; 

int main() 
{ 
    A a1 = {1, 1.0}; 
    return 0; 
} 

错误

init.cpp:15:14: error: type 'double' cannot be narrowed to 'int' in initializer list [-Wc++11-narrowing] 
    A a1 = {1, 1.0}; 
      ^~~ 
init.cpp:15:14: note: insert an explicit cast to silence this issue 
    A a1 = {1, 1.0}; 
      ^~~ 
      static_cast<int>() 

OTOH，它告诫，缩小并编译g++48 -std=c++11

init.cpp: In function ‘int main()’: 
init.cpp:15:17: warning: narrowing conversion of ‘1.0e+0’ from ‘double’ to ‘int’ inside { } [-Wnarrowing] 
    A a1 = {1, 1.0}; 
       ^
init.cpp:15:17: warning: narrowing conversion of ‘1.0e+0’ from ‘double’ to ‘int’ inside { } [-Wnarrowing] 

和产生的结果

A::A(std::initializer_list<int>) 

这两种行为都有意义吗？从cppreference

All constructors that take std::initializer_list as the only argument, or as the first argument if the remaining arguments have default values, are examined, and matched by overload resolution against a single argument of type std::initializer_list

If the previous stage does not produce a match, all constructors of T participate in overload resolution against the set of arguments that consists of the elements of the braced-init-list, with the restriction that only non-narrowing conversions are allowed. If this stage produces an explicit constructor as the best match for a copy-list-initialization, compilation fails (note, in simple copy-initialization, explicit constructors are not considered at all)

引述由于收缩转换是不允许的，我希望重载解析步骤不匹配A(std::initializer_list<int>)构造，而是匹配A(int, double)之一。例如，改变A(std::initializer_list<int>)到A(std::initializer_list<std::string>)既clang35和g++48并打印

A::A(int, double) 

如预期编译。

这种行为是有道理的。斯科特迈尔斯具有例如几乎完全一样本中有效的现代C++（以原强调）：

If, however, one or more constructors declare a parameter of type std::initializer_list , calls using the braced initialization syntax strongly prefer the overloads taking std;:initializer_list s. Strongly. If there's any way for compilers to construe a call using a braced initializer to be a constructor taking a std::initializer_list , compilers will employ that interpretation.

实施例使用这个类：

class Widget { 
public: 
    Widget(int, bool); 
    Widget(int, double); 
    Widget(std::initializer_list<long double>); 
}; 

Widget w1(10, true); // calls first ctor 
Widget w2{10, true}; // calls std::initializer_list ctor 
Widget w3(10, 5.0); // calls second ctor 
Widget w4{10, 5.0}; // calls std::initializer_list ctor 

这两个呼叫拨打initializer_list构造函数，即使它们涉及转换两个论点 - 尽管其他构造函数都是完美匹配。

此外：

Compilers' determination to match braced initializers with constructors taking std::initializer_list s is so strong, it prevails even if the best-match std::initializer_list constructor can't be called. For example:

class Widget { 
public: 
    Widget(int, bool); // as before 
    Widget(int, double); // as before 
    Widget(std::initializer_list<bool>); // now bool 
}; 

Widget w{10, 5.0}; // error! requires narrowing conversions 

两种编译器选择正确的过载（在initializer_list之一） - 我们可以看到从标准（§13.3.1.7）要求：

When objects of non-aggregate class type T are list-initialized (8.5.4), overload resolution selects the constructor in two phases:

(1.1) — Initially, the candidate functions are the initializer-list constructors (8.5.4) of the class T and the argument list consists of the initializer list as a single argument.
(1.2) — If no viable initializer-list constructor is found, overload resolution is performed again, where the candidate functions are all the constructors of the class T and the argument list consists of the elements of the initializer list.

但调用该特定构造函数涉及缩小。在8.5.1中：

If the initializer-clause is an expression and a narrowing conversion (8.5.4) is required to convert the expression, the program is ill-formed.

所以这个程序是不合格的。在这种情况下，当gcc选择发出警告时，clang选择抛出错误。两个编译器都符合要求。
