I'm using visual studio 2013. How come this does not work:
class C
{
public:
std::vector<int> Data{ 1, 2, 3, 4 };
};
but this does:
class C
{
public:
std::vector<int> Data = std::vector<int>{ 1, 2, 3, 4 };
};
Also, how can I do in-class initialization for arrays:
class C
{
public:
int Data[4] = { 1, 2, 3, 4 }; // <--gives error
};
It seems kind of weak that they added initializer list support, but they don't work in-class.

Does Visual Studio 2013 require you to enable C++11 features through some way? Earlier GCC versions required you to pass a command-line switch to enable them.
I believe C++11 is enabled by default. VS2013 doesn't fully support C++11, see details here.
[EDIT] also found this post, not exactly what you are seeing, but still vector initializer doesn't work correctly.

It seems it's a known bug... hopefully it will be fixed in a service pack... see the 13th comment: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vcblog/archive/2013/10/17/visual-studio-2013-available-now.aspx?PageIndex=1#comments

You shouldnt pass a size for the array initialisation let the compiler figure out how many elements there are in the array. It looks like this:
int array[] =
{
1,
2,
3,
4,
10000,
};
Array has size 5 and will be initialised with the values given, this only works for static arrays.

It uses GCC 4.8.1. Just thought I'd mention it.
this only works for static arrays.
And only for the first element. e.g. int array[][] = { 1, 2, 3, 4 5, 6, 7, 8 } does not work, however, int array[][2] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 } } does.

Thanks! I wasn't sure. 
Ideone used to use GCC, but seemed like it started giving more Clang-y error messages recently (apparently GCC updated their output in the 4.8 series - nice!).
