12 Overloading [over]

12.4 Overload resolution [over.match]

12.4.1 Candidate functions and argument lists [over.match.funcs]

12.4.1.5 Initialization by conversion function [over.match.conv]

Under the conditions specified in [dcl.init], as part of an initialization of an object of non-class type, a conversion function can be invoked to convert an initializer expression of class type to the type of the object being initialized.
Overload resolution is used to select the conversion function to be invoked.
Assuming that “cv1 T” is the type of the object being initialized, and “cv S” is the type of the initializer expression, with S a class type, the candidate functions are selected as follows:
The argument list has one argument, which is the initializer expression.
Note
:
This argument will be compared against the implicit object parameter of the conversion functions.
