------- Comment #3 from jason at gcc dot gnu dot org 2009-02-20 05:38 ------- Yes, "i" is bound to "this->i", which I believe is perfectly valid. The section of the standard that says that default arguments can't refer to "this" means that default arguments of member functions can't refer to their own "this" parameter; usage in this form is fine.
