@node Member Type Descriptor
@section The @samp{@@} Type Descriptor
The @samp{@@} type descriptor is for a member (class and variable) type.
It is followed by type information for the offset basetype, a comma, and
type information for the type of the field being pointed to. (FIXME:
this is acknowledged to be gibberish. Can anyone say what really goes
here?).
The @samp{@@} type descriptor is used together with the @samp{*} type
descriptor for a pointer-to-non-static-member-data type. It is followed
by type information for the class (or union), a comma, and type
information for the member data.
The following C++ source:
@smallexample
typedef int A::*int_in_a;
@end smallexample
generates the following stab:
@smallexample
.stabs "int_in_a:t20=*21=@@19,1",128,0,0,0
@end smallexample
Note that there is a conflict between this and type attributes
(@pxref{String Field}); both use type descriptor @samp{@@}.
