C++ static operator overloading

Question

Is it possible to overload C++ class operators in the static context? e.g.

class Class_1{ ... }
int main()
{

    Class_1[val]...

}

Answer 1

If you mean the operator operates on a class, the No. That does not make sense, it is like saying operator + may operator on int or double. Operators are syntactic sugar for functions and they operate on varibles(values) not types.
