In this case, we can define the behavior of the + operator to work with objects as well. This concept of defining operators to work with objects and structure variables is known as operator overloading. Syntax
To avoid this complexity, some libraries opt for overloading operator() instead, so that 3D access expressions have the Fortran-like syntax a(i, j, k) = x;. (until C++23) operator[] can take any number of subscripts. For example, an operator[] of a 3D array class declared as T...
The definition of this member function does not look like the ones that we have seen so far. That is becauseopOpAssignis actually a function template. Since we will see templates in much later chapters, I will have to ask you to accept the operator overloading syntax as is for now: st...
The reason for the error is a syntax error in line 19: a missing line continuation character `&`. Removing the comment character `!` in this line will fix the issue. However, I don't think that the compiler should fail with an ICE. I suppose, this happens due to the over...
Syntax Remarks Example In this section See also The operator keyword declares a function specifying what operator-symbol means when applied to instances of a class. This gives the operator more than one meaning, or "overloads" it. The compiler distinguishes between the different meanings of...

In general, I would say use the class method option if possible. But there are some cases where you would need to (say, you want to overload operator+() for when your class is the second parameter of the operator. Mar 11, 2011 at 4:49am ...

I have come across an odd problem with overloading the concatenation operator. Unfortunately I have been unable to construct a small example that will show the problem, so I append the entire program instead (note: this is work in progress ;)). The gfortran compil...
