  • 0

Is it possible to define operators for enums? For example I have enum Month in my class and I would like to be able to write ++my_month.
Thanks
P.S.
In order to avoid overflowing I did something like this:

void Date::add_month()
{
    switch(my_month_)
    {
    case Dec:
        my_month_ = Jan;
        add_year();
        break;
    default:
        ++my_month_;
        break;
    }
}

    Yes it is. Operator overloading can be done for all user defined types. That includes enums.
