Inheriting constructors

Question

Why does this code:

class A
{
    public: 
        explicit A(int x) {}
};

class B: public A
{
};

int main(void)
{
    B *b = new B(5);
    delete b;
}
         


        

Answer 1

Correct Code is

class A
{
    public: 
      explicit A(int x) {}
};

class B: public A
{
      public:

     B(int a):A(a){
          }
};

main()
{
    B *b = new B(5);
     delete b;
}

Error is b/c Class B has not parameter constructor and second it should have base class initializer to call the constructor of Base Class parameter constructor
