Compiler Error C2549

  • Article

user-defined conversion cannot specify a return type

The following sample generates C2549:

// C2549.cpp
// compile with: /c
class X {
public:
   int operator int() { return value; }   // C2549

   // try the following line instead
   // operator int() { return value; }
private:
   int value;
};
