How to invoke pointer to member function when it's a class data member?

Viewed 6251
struct B
{
  void (B::*pf)(int, int);  // data member
  B () : pf(&B::foo) {}
  void foo (int i, int j) { cout<<"foo(int, int)\n"; } // target method
};

int main ()
{
  B obj;
  // how to call foo() using obj.pf ?
}

In above test code, pf is a data member of B. What's the grammar rule to invoke it ? It should be straight forward, but I am not getting a proper match. e.g. If I try obj.*pf(0,0); then I get:

error: must use ‘.*’ or ‘->*’ to call pointer-to-member function in ‘pf (...)’, e.g. ‘(... ->* pf) (...)’
