Overloading <<
Hi.
See attached code snippet. When I try to use MC as cout<<object<<endl; I get a:
binary '<<' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'MC'
Reasons and a nice fix would be appreciated. I can get around the problem by making the data protected and making the method a friend, but ideally I want the overloaded function as part of the class.
Thanks,
Uni

class MC{
public:
ostream& operator<<(ostream &aOs);
private:
int data;
};
ostream& MC::operator<<(ostream &aOs){
aOS<<data;
return aOS;
}
