What is the easiest way to initialize a std::vector with hardcoded elements?

Question

I can create an array and initialize it like this:

int a[] = {10, 20, 30};

How do I create a std::vector and initialize it sim

Answer 1

Just thought I'd toss in my $0.02. I tend to declare this:

template< typename T, size_t N >
std::vector makeVector( const T (&data)[N] )
{
    return std::vector(data, data+N);
}

in a utility header somewhere and then all that's required is:

const double values[] = { 2.0, 1.0, 42.0, -7 };
std::vector array = makeVector(values);

But I can't wait for C++0x. I'm stuck because my code must also compile in Visual Studio. Boo.
