What (not) to do in a constructor

Question

I want to ask you for your best practices regarding constructors in C++. I am not quite sure what I should do in a constructor and what not.

Should I only use it for

Answer 1

You can do what you want to do, but use constructor for that purpose for what it's call - create object. and if for that need to call others methods, that's Ok. just follow one rule - don't make it complex more than it's need. Good practice is to do constructor as simple as possible, but that not means that you need just initialize members.
