How to overload greater than operator

BlankDoes anyone know how to overload the greater than (>) operator? I know that it is probably not in accordance to the framework design patterns, but it would make my code much cleaner.

BlankPut this in the class of the type for which you are implementing the
greater than operator.

public static bool operator >(Type1 arg1, Type2 arg2)
{
return blah blah;
}

With one clarification.
public static bool operator >(Type1 arg1, Type2 arg2)
{
return blah blah;
}
has to be member of Type1 or Type2

Hello. I am trying to learn how operator overloading works so I wrote a simple class to help me practice. I understand the basic opertoar overload like + - / *, but when I try to overload more complex operator, I get stuck. Here's a brief description what I want to do. I want to simulate a matrix (2D array) from a 1D array. so what I have so far is something like this: class Matrix

Ok, thanks to some good assistance/advice from people in this group I've been able to further develop my Distance class. Since previous posts I've refined my code to accept the unit measurement as a char rather than incorrectly representing it as an int. I've done this because I want to develop the class so that it will be able to convert between values, ie if I add 500 m to 1 km I'd like a correct result given in metres (1500 m in this...

To me, this seems rather redundant. The compiler requires that if you overload the == operator, you must also overload the != operator. All I do for the != operator is something like this: public static bool operator !=(MyType x, MyType y) { return !(x == y); } That way the == operator handles everything, and extra comparing logic isn't

To start off, I'm using GCC4. Specifically, the MingW (setjmp/longjmp) build of GCC 4.2.1 on Windows XP x64. I'm writing a class that abstracts a message, which can be either an integer (stored as long long int), a decimal (double), or a string (std::string). I basically want to overload most of a Message's operators so that the Message class feels more like a native type. For example... Message msg = "tester"; std::string str = msg;...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
