Is there a way to return the current object in any part of the code, even from void main? (which is still a type void). I have tried the this thing but it doesn't work

You may define main as returning int, to communicate the termination status of the program to the environment that started it: int main() { return 0; } Ali |

(which is still a type void). I have tried the this thing but it doesn't work Main isn't a member of any object, so there is no "this" inside main. |
