I'm interested in what that would even look like. Under what circumstances are typedefs used to define a name for linkage purposes? I understand a class since they declare/define a thing two which I can refer. I don't mean to sound dumb. You certainly don't need to explain it if you can point to something I can read. Thanks for helping me learn something new!
