Member pointer to array element

Question

It\'s possible to define a pointer to a member and using this later on:

struct foo
{
  int a;
  int b[2];
};


int main()
{

  foo bar;
  int foo::*          


        

Answer 1

  typedef int (foo::*b_member_ptr)[2];
  b_member_ptr c= &foo::b;

all works.

small trick for member and function pointers usage.
try to write

char c = &foo::b; // or any other function or member pointer

and in compiller error you will see expected type, for your case int (foo::*)[2].

EDIT
I'm not sure that what you want is legal without this pointer. For add 1 offset to your pointer you should get pointer on array from your pointer on member array. But you can dereference member pointer without this.
