Does every object of virtual class have a pointer to vtable?

Does every object of virtual class have a pointer to vtable?

Or only the object of base class with virtual function has it?

Where did the vtable stored? code

Try this at home:

#include 
struct non_virtual {}; 
struct has_virtual { virtual void nop() {} }; 
struct has_virtual_d : public has_virtual { virtual void nop() {} }; 

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
   std::cout << sizeof non_virtual << "\n" 
             << sizeof has_virtual << "\n" 
             << sizeof has_virtual_d << "\n";
}
