Inheritance

struct Base {
virtual void print() { std::cout << "** Base **" << std::endl; }
};

struct Deri : public Base {
void print() { std::cout << "** Deri **" << std::endl; }
};

struct myInterface {
virtual void vm(Base* bp) = 0;
};

struct myImpl : public myInterface {
void vm(Deri* bp) {
bp->print();
}
};

Hi, Please could you explain why the above implementation of method
vm() in 'myImpl' not acceptable?
Thanks.

as "void myInterface::vm(Base*)" in 'myInterface' is pure virtual
function, you have to override it to make 'myImpl' no more abstract
before you can declare any variable of 'myImpl'.

Actually, here
"void myImpl::vm(Deri*)"
is not overriding "void myInterface::vm(Base*)", as they have different
parameter lists.
