- I've just begun to use Microsoft's foundation class libraries
- and have come across many member functions that are declared
- with a CObject*& return type ( e.g. CObject*& GetHead(); )
- I think it has to do with assignment to function call results,
- but could someone please clarify the meaning and intended use
- of the *& ?
