Hi Everyone,
I was wondering what is the datatype of vtpr and what is its access
specifier (public or private or protected)?
This is in regard to the inheritance of a class having one or more
virtual functions.
Thanks in advance!!!

It is all implementation specific, so we don't know.
There is not even a requirement to have a vptr, if the compiler can
perform the required actions without one.

Please do not quote signatures, and please reply to the post to which
your reply is directed.

I think that as a user there is no way to tell if there is a vptr to
begin with.

Hi all
Is this assertion guaranteed?
{
void *vptr;
memset( & vptr, 0, sizeof vptr);
assert( NULL == vptr );
}
What about these ones?
