Currently, we don't allow adding or subtracting a BaseSize to BaseRect with a +/-/+=/-= operators. While this may prevent type errors, I think it's more likely that we want to add/subtract the width and height dimensions of the BaseSize to the BaseRect's.

Let's also flag Kats to see if he agrees that the operator being added here is reasonable from a class interface point of view.

There is an idiom in C++ for reusing code between the "a op b" and the "a op= b" forms of an overloaded operator by implementing the former in terms of the latter (see http://herbsutter.com/2013/05/20/gotw-4-class-mechanics/, point 4).

I realize that other operators in this class don't use it, but I think it's better to start late than never.

The interface changes seem ok to me but somebody who owns this code should review it.

I agree.

I'm not sure how to do this. We need to take the operator+ out of the BaseRect class to do this, but it's templated so I can't refer to it entirely generically. Maybe my C++-fu is failing me here.

Hmm, good point. I think we can dispense with the "pass the first parameter by value" optimization and write operator+ as follows:

    Sub operator+(const SizeT& aSize) const
    {
        Sub result(static_cast<const Sub&>(*this));
        result += aSize;
        return result;
    }

This problem made me curious enough to ask about this on StackOverflow [1].

It seems we can use an in-class 'friend' declaration FTW:

    friend Sub operator+(Sub aRect, const SizeT& aSize)
    {
        return aRect += aSize;
    }

Clearing review flag until patch is revised as per comment 2 (see comment 7 for guidance).

Cool, that worked! I decided to fix the operators for Rect+/-Point, too.
