Typo? Doesn't make sense to me though, even if I relate it to D_Drmmr's example; perhaps it's just the phrasing?

Typographical error: the latter "definition" should be "declaration".

I don't know enough about compilation etc. to really talk about stuff like this, but isn't the .cpp merged with the .h at compilation? E.g. the definition is always guaranteed to be complete by the time you include it (unless you have circular dependencies or haven't defined functions/statics/etc)? Hence making it a definition?

Well, that would be true if you were including the header in the source file that contains the member function definition. But what if you were including the header in another source file that contains code that is supposed to use objects of the class type?
