> Hello,> Is there a way to decorate a member function as non overriden, so at the call site the user will receive a compile time warning that he is using the base class implementation instead of the derived class implementation?If your intent is to force derived classes to override a method, andyou want to give a compile error when attempting to call this functionif the derived class did not, we already have a mechanism for that:pure virtual functions.No, actually the contrary. If that won't solve the issue, you should explain what functionalitypure virtual functions lack that you're looking for.Expl:struct base{ virtual void foo(){};};struct derived: public base{}int main(){ derived d; d.foo(); // i would like to receive a warning here telling me that I'm using the base class implementation }Sent from my Galaxy
