// Before C++11
// I used following methods:

// 1.
int A[] = {10, 20, 30};                              // original array A

unsigned sizeOfA = sizeof(A)/sizeof(A[0]);           // calculate the number of elements

                                                     // declare vector vArrayA,
std::vector<int> vArrayA(sizeOfA);                   // make room for all
                                                     // array A integers
                                                     // and initialize them to 0 

for(unsigned i=0; i<sizeOfA; i++)
    vArrayA[i] = A[i];                               // initialize vector vArrayA


//2.
int B[] = {40, 50, 60, 70};                          // original array B

std::vector<int> vArrayB;                            // declare vector vArrayB
for (unsigned i=0; i<sizeof(B)/sizeof(B[0]); i++)
    vArrayB.push_back(B[i]);                         // initialize vArrayB

//3.
int C[] = {1, 2, 3, 4};                              // original array C

std::vector<int> vArrayC;                            // create an empty vector vArrayC
vArrayC.resize(sizeof(C)/sizeof(C[0]));              // enlarging the number of 
                                                     // contained elements
for (unsigned i=0; i<sizeof(C)/sizeof(C[0]); i++)
     vArrayC.at(i) = C[i];                           // initialize vArrayC


// A Note:
// Above methods will work well for complex arrays
// with structures as its elements.

如果你不想使用Boost，但想享受语法

std::vector<int> v;
v+=1,2,3,4,5;

只需要包含这段代码

template <class T> class vector_inserter{
public:
    std::vector<T>& v;
    vector_inserter(std::vector<T>& v):v(v){}
    vector_inserter& operator,(const T& val){v.push_back(val);return *this;}
};
template <class T> vector_inserter<T> operator+=(std::vector<T>& v,const T& x){
    return vector_inserter<T>(v),x;
}

你可以使用boost::assign:

vector<int> values;
values += 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9;

“我如何创建一个STL向量并像上面那样初始化它?用最少的打字工作量做到这一点的最佳方法是什么?”

在初始化内置数组时，初始化vector最简单的方法是使用c++ 11中引入的初始化列表。

// Initializing a vector that holds 2 elements of type int.
Initializing:
std::vector<int> ivec = {10, 20};


// The push_back function is more of a form of assignment with the exception of course
//that it doesn't obliterate the value of the object it's being called on.
Assigning
ivec.push_back(30);

执行赋值(标签语句)后，ivec大小为3个元素。

开始:

int a[] = {10, 20, 30}; //I'm assuming 'a' is just a placeholder

如果你没有c++ 11编译器，也不想使用Boost:

const int a[] = {10, 20, 30};
const std::vector<int> ints(a, a+sizeof(a)/sizeof(int)); //Make it const if you can

如果你没有c++ 11编译器，可以使用Boost:

#include <boost/assign.hpp>
const std::vector<int> ints = boost::assign::list_of(10)(20)(30);

如果你有c++ 11编译器:

const std::vector<int> ints = {10,20,30};

在c++ 0x中，你可以用与数组相同的方式来做这件事，但不是在当前的标准中。

只有语言支持，您可以使用:

int tmp[] = { 10, 20, 30 };
std::vector<int> v( tmp, tmp+3 ); // use some utility to avoid hardcoding the size here

如果你可以添加其他库，你可以尝试boost::assignment:

vector<int> v = list_of(10)(20)(30);

要避免硬编码数组的大小:

// option 1, typesafe, not a compile time constant
template <typename T, std::size_t N>
inline std::size_t size_of_array( T (&)[N] ) {
   return N;
}
// option 2, not typesafe, compile time constant
#define ARRAY_SIZE(x) (sizeof(x) / sizeof(x[0]))

// option 3, typesafe, compile time constant
template <typename T, std::size_t N>
char (&sizeof_array( T(&)[N] ))[N];    // declared, undefined
#define ARRAY_SIZE(x) sizeof(sizeof_array(x))
