Tested on MinGW 4.4.0
The following code does not compile and should:
int main()
{
int * a = new int{};
int * b = new int{5};
return 0;
}
Compiler output:
main.cpp||In function 'int main()':|
main.cpp|3|error: aggregate value used where an integer was expected|
main.cpp|4|error: aggregate value used where an integer was expected|
main.cpp|3|warning: unused variable 'a'|
main.cpp|4|warning: unused variable 'b'|
