In member function "unsigned int* B::f()":
cc_operators.cc:4: fel: cannot convert "unsigned int A::*" to "unsigned
int*" in return
If I change it to &(A::j) it works, but that should not be needed since
operator:: has highest precedence according to the book, right?
Hi.
I don't know what exactly the C++ standard says and GCC thinks,
but I prefer to see the "&CLASSNAME::MEMBER" not as the
combination of parts "&" and "::", but as the whole, with the semantics
"give me a relative address of a member" .
This explains, why, in the second case, the "&(C::M)" should be used.
But better post this question to "comp.lang.c++.moderated".

Dima.
