anonymous ctor?

[.rhavin grobert]

in anonymous unions you can overload the operators
(at least, it seems to work with my compiler;-), but ...

union {
//whatever
operator= (...);
} foo;

.... is there a way to overload the ctor?

You can't have an anonymous union with member functions, even if your
particular compiler lets you do it (it shouldn't).

The simple solution may be to not use an anonymous union.

union FooUnion {
//whatever
FooUnion ();
operator= (...);
} foo;
