Ah, the joys of dereferencing.

. is used to access members of an object.

-> is used to access members of an object when you have a pointer to that object.

If you have:

object* MyObjectPtr = new object();

then you have to access members via:

MyObjectPtr->member();

Whereas if you have just:

object MyObject;

you use:

MyObject.member();
