Can I have one member function with two names? Like an Alias?

[Tom]

class CBlah
{
void MemberFun1( int x )
{ ... }
void MemberFun2( int x )
{ MemberFun1( x ); }
};

This doesn't look very efficient to me. Or might the compiler optimize MemberFun2 away? Or is there a better way to do this?

Thanks,
Tom.

By writing the code within the class, you instruct the compiler to
"inline" the code for MemberFun1. Given its complexity, this is
likely to succeed. In debug mode, this often will be ignored though,
so you can fllow the code through MemberFun2

From an interface viewpoint, the second function doesn't add value
- although a real-world example might, with e.g. arguments
exchanged.
