<p>I am looking at someone else's code right now and saw an unusual (atleast for me) function declaration syntax. Is the following valid C++ syntax?</p>

<pre><code>bool Foo::Bar(Frame *&amp;ptoframe, int msToBlock)
{
    ....
}
</code></pre>

<p>I think the developer is trying to declare a pointer to a reference.</p>

<p>thanks for the help</p>
