Curly braces to initialize variables in C++ and UE4

[Philx]

Why in Unreal Engine we never see declared variable with curly braces like in standard cpp. Is it just for convention purpose?

[StephenUlibarri]

You can use them in Unreal Engine!
Initializing with the curly braces is a more relatively modern method as it has some advantages, such as detecting a narrowing conversion (initializing an int with a double, for instance… doing so drops the digits after the decimal) as one example.

Thank you very much for your answer!

Absolutely!
