Code examples

The following code example fails the check and will give a warning:

class C{
  bool x;
  bool operator||(bool other);
};

bool C::operator||(bool other){
  return x || other;
}

The following code example passes the check and will not give a warning about this issue:

};

int C::operator+(int other){
  return x + other;
}
