Thread: Correct synthax for calling a constructor with a temporary object.

Hi,

I have a problem calling a constructor with a temporary object; the syntax makes the compiler think it's a function declaration where I only want to instantiate an object... here's a simplified example of what I would like to do...

Code:

class Test1
{
};

class Test2
{
public:
    explicit Test2(const Test1 &)
    { }

    void function() const
    {
        return;
    }
};

int main()
{
    Test2 t2(Test1());  // I want t2 to be a Test2 object, but this syntax
                        // means "t2 is a function returning a Test2 object
                        // and taking one argument who is a function returning a
                        // Test1 object and taking no argument
    t2.function();      // error: request for member ‘function’ in ‘t2’, which is
                        // of non-class type ‘Test2 ()(Test1 (*)())’


    return 0;
}

What is the correct syntax to achieve this ?

Thanks

Hahaha. Thanks. I have been scared for a few moment.
