tuple vector and initializer_list

Question

I tried to compile the following snippets with gcc4.7

vector > vp = {{1,\'a\'},{2,\'b\'}};
//For pair vector, it works like a char         


        

Answer 1

Annoying isn't it? I was also using pairs before - in a similar scenario and was surprised tuples do not support this, as the {} initialization syntax saves a lot of clutter. You can insert the elements manually in containers using make_tuple, so:

vt.push_back(make_tuple(2,4.2,'b'));

should work
