Instantiate and initialise a struct dynamically

I am initialising a c style struct using a list:

FooBar fb = { 12, 3.4 };

this works fine, but how would i create the struct dynamically using this curvy brace notation?

thanks

In C++11,

std::unique_ptr<FooBar> fb {new FooBar {12, 3.4}};

In C++03, you can't.

C++11:

FooBar* fb = new FooBar{ 12, 3.4 };

You can also use it in containers:

std::vector<FooBar> v;
v.push_back({ 12, 3.4 });
