Thread: Lambda's - What does this mean?

The function-call operator is never volatile-qualified and not virtual.

This is from a website I've been reading lately to get a better understanding of C++11 (and onward), describing lambda's. I feel a bit silly asking this, but is the bolded part saying the function-call operator is "not virtual", or is it "never not virtual" (meaning, always virtual)?

Thanks!

The sentence should be parsed as: The function-call operator is (never volatile-qualified) and (not virtual).

Thanks Laserlight, that makes much more sense now. I guess that while I read stuff like this, I get into a mode where I try and read it with machine logic lol (too many keywords mixed in with the description I guess).
