What is the compound assignment operator overloading syntax? I cannot find on the web. How can for example overload operator+= ?
I know that it has to be a member function but what has to be its return value? reference?

You didn't look very hard, did you? This is the first hit from google that I got using keywords from your thread title.

I can't do anything about your eyesight. But it does show an example of how to define the function under the heading "Compound Assignment Operators += -= *=".
