virtual function call from base class

Question

Say we have:

Class Base
{   
    virtual void f(){g();};
    virtual void g(){//Do some Base related code;}
};

Class Derived : public Base
{   
    virtual         


        

Answer 1

As you have defined g() to be virtual, the most derived g() will be looked up in the vtable of the class and called regardless of the type your code is currently accessing it.

See the C++ FAQ on virtual functions.
