Error around pointers, I think.

Sooo heres the stuff, its on line 53 or the part that ive commented off. The error is 'Item::clone':non-newboi standard syntax; use '&' to create a pointer to member.
There's another error around the same line of code, and it reads'=' cannot convert from 'Item*(_thiscallItem::*)(void)const' to 'Item*'.
I'm pretty sure the two are related lmao

	itemsArr = new Item*[cap];
}

{
	for (size_t i = 0; i < this->numOfItems; i++)

	{
		tempArr[i] = this->itemsArr[i];
	}

	delete[] this->itemsArr;

	this->itemsArr = tempArr;

	this->initialize(this->numOfItems);
}

void Inventory::initialize(const int from)
{
	for (size_t i = from; i < this->cap; i++)
	{
		itemsArr[i] = nullptr;
	}
}

void Inventory::addItem(const Item &item)
{
	if (this->numOfItems >= this->cap)
	{
		expand();
	}
//This is the problem child->	this->itemsArr[this->numOfItems++] = item.clone;
}

void Inventory::removeItem(int index)
{

}


here's the header file the cpp file is including as well.

Did you mean item.clone() (the parentheses are mandatory when calling functions)?

wow I actually didn't see that
