Some code I don't understand

[John E]

I'm not sure if it's C++11 maybe but I just came across this line of code in a class declaration:-

explicit timepos_t (samplepos_t s) : int62_t (false, samples_to_superclock (s, TEMPORAL_SAMPLE_RATE)) {}

I don't remember seeing anything like that before and I don't quite understand what it is. Is it a variable? Or some kind of inline code segment? Or a class or struct maybe? It seems to have aspects of all three...

Without more context, this looks like a constructor of a class timepos_t which takes a parameter of type samplepos_t and initializes a member variable called int62_t in the initiliazer list.
Somehow strange.

I agree with Richard above.

Ah, that makes sense now I've woken up - the actual class looks like this:-

class timepos_t : public int62_t  {
  public:
	timepos_t () : int62_t (false, 0) {}
	timepos_t (TimeDomain d) : int62_t (d != AudioTime, 0) {}

	/* for now (Sept2020) do not allow implicit type conversions */

	explicit timepos_t (samplepos_t s) : int62_t (false, samples_to_superclock (s, TEMPORAL_SAMPLE_RATE)) {}
	explicit timepos_t (Temporal::Beats const & b) : int62_t (true, b.to_ticks()) {}

	// Some more stuff...
};

I saw the 2 x c'tors at the top and then thought these were some weird code I hadn't seen before! Unfortunately the first explicit line crashes at run time so I'll need to figure out what's going on.
