Inner class accessing outer class [duplicate]

Answer 1

I am only making a guess at what you want to do, but if my guess is correct, you might be thinking of something like the below.

struct FSM_Base {
    int x;

    struct submachine1;
    struct submachine2;

    FSM_Base () : x(0) {}
    virtual ~FSM_Base () {}
};

struct FSM_Base::submachine1 : virtual public FSM_Base {
    void oneentry () { int g = x; }
};

struct FSM_Base::submachine2 : virtual public FSM_Base {
    void oneentry () { int g = x; }
};

struct FSM : public FSM_Base::submachine1,
             public FSM_Base::submachine2 {
    FSM_Base::submachine1 * sub1 () { return this; }
    FSM_Base::submachine2 * sub2 () { return this; }
};
