Is it C++ Spec regulated? Or vendor implementation specific?

About the link, it only deals with overload, not covering template, right?

yes steve, you are correct.

But, My understanding is "operator double()" and "operator int()" are not overloaded members instead it is two different overloaded operators for user-defined conversion of prototype "double operator double()" and "int operator int()" since conversion has the same return type of the conversion type the return type of the conversion operators are redundant and compiler gives error message "C2549: user-defined conversion cannot specify a return type" actually these functions differ not by return type but by the prototype itself.

I'd consider them member functions since they have access to the object's state through an implicit this pointer

and the choice of which function is called depends on the type to which the result of the call is assigned

both are different functions and its not matched by the return type but as a typecast operator.
