Can I directly call the overloaded parenthesis on my object?

Question

Assume I have overloaded () let's say to return an integer, I am writing some method of my class and I need to call the overloaded () on the current object,

Can I write say 3 + (i,j) instead of 3 + (*this)(i,j) ?

Answer 1

You can't say

3 + (i,j)

but you can say

3 + operator()(i, j)

or

3 + (*this)(i, j)
