I have a following snippet of code that assigned nullptr
to bool
type.
#include
int main()
{
bool b = nullptr
From the C++ Standard (4.12 Boolean conversions)
1 A prvalue of arithmetic, unscoped enumeration, pointer, or pointer to member type can be converted to a prvalue of type bool. A zero value, null pointer value, or null member pointer value is converted to false; any other value is converted to true. For direct-initialization (8.5), a prvalue of type std::nullptr_t can be converted to a prvalue of type bool; the resulting value is false.
So this declaration
bool b( nullptr );
is valid and this
bool b = nullptr;
is wrong.
I myself pointed out already this problem at isocpp
