Bug ID: 65591 Summary: G++ should use default constructor for {}-init when possible Product: gcc Version: 5.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: missed-optimization Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: jason at gcc dot gnu.org CC: daniel.kruegler at googlemail dot com, jakub at gcc dot gnu.org, jason at gcc dot gnu.org, maltsevm at gmail dot com, mpolacek at gcc dot gnu.org, pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org Depends on: 65154 >From Mikhail Maltsev's comment 5 on Bug #65154: But it reveals some latent bug (PR65503). In the following case (after applying the patch): struct ss { ss() {}; }; struct C { ss s[1000]; }; int main() { C cs[5]{}; } We'll get 1000 calls to ss() in main instead of calling default c-tor of struct C. (which is probably not what we want). ----- I agree that we want to call the default constructor in this case, and let the inliner decide from there. This is not the same issue as bug 65503.
