After some thought, I've concluded that it is because CThreadPool has two constructors:

  • CThreadPool() = default
  • CThreadPool(size_t)
    and only the size_t version has a constructor initialisation for stop(false), a few lines further down. The default constructor doesn't, and therefore if that constructor were used, stop would start uninitialised.

In fact, it would appear that in the code, the CThreadPool constructor is only ever called with the size_t argument, in server.cpp.

So in that case, instead of the above in-class initialisation, I would remove the default constructor declaration and check that the code still compiles (it should, unless I've overlooked something).

};

// the constructor just launches some amount of workers
