# modernize-use-default-member-init

This check converts constructors’ member initializers into the new default member initializers in C++11. Other member initializers that match the default member initializer are removed. This can reduce repeated code or allow use of ‘= default’.

    struct A {
      A() : i(5), j(10.0) {}
      A(int i) : i(i), j(10.0) {}
      int i;
      double j;
    };

    // becomes

    struct A {
      A() {}
      A(int i) : i(i) {}
      int i{5};
      double j{10.0};
    };

Note

Only converts member initializers for built-in types, enums, and pointers. The readability-redundant-member-init check will remove redundant member initializers for classes.

## Options

UseAssignment

  If this option is set to true (default is false), the check will initialize members with an assignment. For example:

    struct A {
      A() {}
      A(int i) : i(i) {}
      int i = 5;
      double j = 10.0;
    };

IgnoreMacros

  If this option is set to true (default is true), the check will not warn about members declared inside macros.
