When you are coding with pointers in c++ and you want to access the function/variable from that pointer deferenced, how come you cannot use something like below.
struct typeT{
int value1;
};
typeT* tt = new typeT;
*tt.value1;
it is because the access element of the variable tt is higher in the compiler and thus it tries to equate
tt.value1
first, which is not a good thing because the tt has not been de-referenced and thus it is just a memory address pointer to the actual object. so you need to do
(*tt).value1
because like in maths the () will be equated first and then the access element part “.” and thus to make it easier
tt->value1
will change to
(*tt).value1
within the compiler.
