Hi rooters. I have a class (call it MyIter) on which I define operator->(). This is a specific iterator class to be fast and handle typesafety, and overloading operator->() is normal and natural for such classes. If I do MyIter y; y->Function(), in C++ this is turned into something like: (y.operator->())->Function() where y.operator->() returns a pointer to an object of some other class. but in CINT, it looks like we are running into CINT's extension of allowing the equivalence of . and ->, and it tells me that Function() is not a member of class MyIter. It would be very nice if CINT would just check first to see if operator-> is defined on the class, and if so use C++ semantics for it, before using the extension to the language.
