Keywords: member pointers Message-ID: <1990Sep4.225920.14917@agate.berkeley.edu> Date: 4 Sep 90 22:59:20 GMT Sender: Allen Holub Reply-To: holub@violet.berkeley.edu () Organization: University of California, Berkeley Lines: 5 Can anyone give me a realistic example of what pointers to class members are good for? I understand how they work and what they do, but all of the books I've seen give examples that are too trivial to be useful, and every time I try to use them I come up against some structural problem that eventually makes me take a different approach.
