You do the same in C++, just ctors and dtors have fixed names:
struct TThisObject : public TObject {
        TThisObject();                  // Init
        TThisObject(TStream & s);       // Load form stream
        void Store(TStream & s);        // Store on stream
        ~TThisObject();                 // Done
};
Use:
{
TStream fIn;
TThisObject a;                  // calls Init
TThisObject loadedA(fIn) ;      // calls Load
TThisObject * pA  = new TThisObject;            // calls Init
TThisObject * pLa = new TThisObject(fIn);       // calls Load
delete pA;      // Done both
delete pLa;
}  // exitind scope, loadedA, a, fIn Done called
