I’ve blogged about surprising bits of the C++ object model before, and I’m back with more.

Executive summary: Don’t use mozilla::PodZero or mozilla::PodArrayZero . Modern C++ provides better alternatives that don’t presume that writing all zeroes will always correctly initialize the given type. Use constructors, in-class member initializers, and functions like std::fill to zero member fields.

C++ as a language really wants to know when objects are created so that compilers can know that this memory contains an object of this type. Compilers then can assume that writing an object of one type, won’t conflict with reads/writes of incompatible types.
