Compiler Error C2550

'identifier' : constructor initializer lists are only allowed on constructor definitions

Remarks

A base class initializer list is used on the definition of a function that is not a constructor.

Example

The following example generates C2550:

// C2550.cpp
// compile with: /c
class C {
public:
   C();
};

class D : public C {
public:
   D();
   void func();
};

void D::func() : C() {}  // C2550
D::D() : C() {}   // OK
