In essence, the visitor allows one to add new virtual functions to a family of classes without modifying the classes themselves; instead, one creates a visitor class that implements all of the appropriate specializations of the virtual function.

A recent architecture in this vein is the Heterogeneous System Architecture ( 2012 ), which HSA Intermediate Layer ( HSAIL ) provides instruction set support for HLL features such as exceptions and virtual functions; this uses JIT to ensure performance.

Whenever a class defines a virtual function ( or method ), most compilers add a hidden member variable to the class which points to an array of pointers to ( virtual ) functions called the virtual method table ( VMT or Vtable ).

The HSA Intermediate Layer ( HSAIL ) of the Heterogeneous System Architecture ( 2012 ) provides a virtual instruction set to abstract away from the underlying ISAs, and has support for HLL features such as exceptions and virtual functions, and include debugging support.

Needless to say, I'm using virtual functions, but there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the program, and the error message seems to be from the underlying aspects of the compilation process ( such as the linker ).

This effectively emulates the virtual function call system at compile time without the costs in size or function call overhead ( VTBL structures, and method lookups, multiple-inheritance VTBL machinery ) at the disadvantage of not being able to make this choice at runtime.

However, this is different from the polymorphism used in object-oriented function calls ( referred to as " virtual functions " in C + + ) which resolves the call based on the value type as opposed to the supertypes the variable is allowed to have.

I suppose this example is only intended to demonstrate " virtual functions "-For real code, you would really, really need a " virtual destructor " in A, or you'd have " undefined behavior " upon " talk ) 11 : 24, 16 June 2010 ( UTC)

In 1983, " C with Classes " was renamed to " C + + " ( " + + " being the increment operator in C ), adding new features that included virtual functions, function name and operator overloading, references, constants, type-safe free-store memory allocation ( new / delete ), improved type checking, and BCPL style single-line comments with two forward slashes ( / / ).
