#

Under the conditions specified in [dcl.init.ref], a reference can be bound directly to the result of applying a conversion function to an initializer expression.

Overload resolution is used to select the conversion function to be invoked.

Assuming that “reference to cv1 T” is the type of the reference being initialized, the candidate functions are selected as follows:

• (1.1)

Let R be a set of types including

• (1.1.1)

“lvalue reference to cv2 T2” (when converting to an lvalue) and

• (1.1.2)

“cv2 T2” and “rvalue reference to cv2 T2” (when converting to an rvalue or an lvalue of function type)

for any T2. The permissible types for non-explicit conversion functions are the members of R where “cv1 T” is reference-compatible ([dcl.init.ref]) with “cv2 T2”. For direct-initialization, the permissible types for explicit conversion functions are the members of R where T2 can be converted to type T with a (possibly trivial) qualification conversion ([conv.qual]); otherwise there are none.

The argument list has one argument, which is the initializer expression.

[Note 1:

This argument will be compared against the object parameter of the conversion functions.
