Yes but I neglected the lvalue/rvalue issue. In some cases the code
won't compile if the return type of the newly written explicit function
is not 'ref'. For example, the 'ref' below is essential for the
following use case:
class C {
int* result;
// HERE
ref asIntPtr() {
return result;
}
}
auto main() {
auto c = new C();
int i;
c.asIntPtr = &i;
assert(c.result == &i);
}
