Interestingly enough, if you did this:
int main() { B b; C* c = new C(b); }
It will compile and work as expected. The constructor wants an A, a B is an A, so everything is fine.
Why one needs to declare the B first, rather than instantiating the temporary as in the code below, I have no idea. Can anyone shed some light on this?
class C{
public:
C(A& a) : initialize....{do Stuff;}The 'B ()' part of 'C (B ())' cannot bind to a non-const reference.
