This code test.cc
#include <iostream>
int main(){
int a = 10;
bool b {a};
bool c (a);
std::cout << a
<< " "
<< b
<< " "
<< std::endl;
return 0;
}
In clang or gcc
$clang++ -w test.cc
<source>:4:13: error: non-constant-expression cannot be narrowed from type 'int' to 'bool' in initializer list [-Wc++11-narrowing]
bool b {a};
^
<source>:4:13: note: insert an explicit cast to silence this issue
bool b {a};

$g++ -w test.cc ; ./a.out

Clang just gives an error message on line 4 but missed line 5. While in GCC, it compiles well.
Reproduced in godbolt : https://godbolt.org/z/rzxTSg
I am wondering what is the difference between using "b {a};" and "c (a);" to initialize a value.
I guess I might miss something, could someone help me out? Thanks ~
