I am getting the following error when running make for my CUDA (v7.5) application:
nvlink error : Undefined reference to '_ZN8Strategy8backtestEPddd'
I'm not sure why. It seems something is likely wrong with my Makefile. Here it is -- any ideas what might be causing the error? Thank you in advance!

Note this started happening around the time I added --device-c (which some code changes require).
Turns out objects passed to CUDA kernels cannot have virtual functions. See this thread.
However, it seems that objects instantiated and used only within the kernel can have virtual functions.
