This is he general CINT interactive feature.
Try to print any C++ statement from the command line that is not followed by
"semicolon".
You should see CINT prints the statement "value" or zero of the value is of
"void".
The same is right when C++ statement is provided from any other source (when
CINT is called
indirectly, like your TTimer).
To get the standard behavior one has to supply the standard syntax.
Hope this helps
