If I have a class with the operator() defined then for an object "obj"
of this class I can call: obj(). However if I want to make the same call
via a pointer to the object pobj I am stuck with this ugly syntax:
pobj->operator()().

Is there a better way???

     class A {
     public: int attr;
             virtual ~A(){};
             int operator()(){return 0;};
     };


     ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

     void main()
     {
         A* pa;
         pa->operator()(); //???
     }

 (*pobj)();

(nothing like plain simple solutions)
