hi,
it seems i can't assign the const variable u in class A, one way to
solve the problem may be to build a copy constructor. however, why
does C++ or vector class not like this code? my g++ is: gcc version
4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465). thanks for the help.

You have a number of problems with this code.
First, when (12) is executed, std::vector tries to allocate an array of
struct A. Unfortunately, struct A has no default constructor. So, it
cannot construct each element in the array.
There is no array, he's trying to copy into the empty vector a single
element.
Preciously. So, before line (12) can assign the element A(2) into
std::vector, the program must invoke code to allocate an array first.
How else will std::vector<A> store A(12)?
There is no array in an empty vector. The vector is empty.
pushing back a parametized element requires no default construction
either.
As i already mentioned, to have a vector invoke a default ctor you
would have to tell it to do so.
std::vector< A > v; // does not invoke any of A's ctors
std::vector< A > v(10); // invokes A's default ctor + 10 copies
A vector is not an array.
Here is the proof:
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
class A
{
int m_n;
public:
A() : m_n(0) { std::cout << "A()\n"; }
A(int n) : m_n(n) { std::cout << "A(int)\n"; }
A(const A& copy)
{
std::cout << "A(const A& copy)\n";
m_n = copy.m_n;
}
};
int main()
{
std::cout << "declaring an empty std::vector:\n";
std::vector< A > v;
std::cout << "v.size() = " << v.size() << std::endl;
std::cout << "pushing an element:\n";
v.push_back( A(99) );
std::cout << "v.size() = " << v.size() << std::endl;
std::cout << "default constructing 10 elements:\n";
std::vector< A > v2(10);
std::cout << "v2.size() = " << v2.size() << std::endl;
}
/*
declaring an empty std::vector:
v.size() = 0
pushing an element:
A(int)
A(const A& copy)
v.size() = 1
default constructing 10 elements:
A()
A(const A& copy)
A(const A& copy)
A(const A& copy)
A(const A& copy)
A(const A& copy)
A(const A& copy)
A(const A& copy)
A(const A& copy)
A(const A& copy)

v2.size() = 10

i tried a copy constructor, but the problem persist.
