 |
|
I need simply this:
{
X status; // X is a class of only one int
status = 0;
status |= X::FLAG;
}
I want use "status" as an integer without do overloading of all operators
or build 2 function for each flag(set/reset) or 1 function with bool param.
(1) I cannot inherit X from int.
(2) I'm not able (or it cannot) build an autocasting X to int.
What about (2)?
Thanks
Stefano Z.

You'll need to overload each of the int-like operators you're interested
in supporting.

Define an operator int method:
class X
{
...
operator int () const { return ...; }
...
};
