Current implementation does not allows to write functions that explicitly return pointers (they can be deduced with using auto).
During the presentation, Herb presented a function that returns a pointer (https://github.com/hsutter/cppfront/wiki/Design-note%3A-Postfix-operators#two-examples-from-cppfront-parseh) so I have implemented it.
If we skip explicit
this
use then the rest of the function will compile in cppfront after this change. So, this code will compile:The support for multi-level pointers is included.
