Gtkmm sorcery

[cl333r]

Hi folks,
I found out that both

Gtk::TreeView::Column *pColumn=m_TreeView.get_column(cols_count-1);
and

Gtk::TreeViewColumn *pColumn=m_TreeView.get_column(cols_count-1);
compile and execute well.
Does anyone know of a link where I can read about why one can write both Gtk::TreeView::Column and Gtk::TreeViewColumn with same success?

Not as much sorcery as you might think, the second is just a typedef of the first, it mentions it somewhere in the docs.

On the chance you haven't run across typedef before http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typedef
