Compiler Error C2073
'identifier' : elements of partially initialized array must have a default constructor
Remarks
Too few initializers were specified for an array of user-defined types or constants. If an explicit initializer and its corresponding constructor are not specified for an array member, a default constructor must be supplied.
This compiler error is obsolete in Visual Studio 2022.
Example
The following sample generates C2073. Source file C2073.cpp
:
// C2073.cpp
class A {
public:
A( int ); // constructor for ints only
};
A a[3] = { A(1), A(2) }; // C2073, no default constructor
A fix is shown here in source file C2073b.cpp
:
// C2073b.cpp
// compile with: /c
class B {
public:
B(); // default constructor declared
B( int );
};
B b[3] = { B(1), B(2) }; // OK
