All Rights Reserved. 17.2 Inheritance Overview Inheritance –A derived class absorbs data members from its base class The derived class normally adds its own data members and member functions A derived class is typically more specialized than its base class –Is a relationship An object of the derived class is an object of the base class –Class Hierarchy Defines inheritance relationships among classes Direct base classes are one level above their derived classes Indirect base classes are two or more levels above their derived classes

All Rights Reserved. 17.2 Inheritance Overview (Cont.) public inheritance –Use a colon, the public keyword and the base class name –Non private members retain their original member access –private members are also inherited, but are not directly accessible in the derived class The derived class must use the base class’s get and set functions –Base classes can redefine the functions that they inherit

C++ uses the type of the pointer to an object, not the type of the object, to determine which function to call when a derived class redefines a base class function /* Here is the problem. The answer to the why question.*/

© Copyright 1992–2005 by Deitel & Associates, Inc. and Pearson Education Inc. All Rights Reserved. 17.6 Polymorphism Polymorphism allows a function call to act differently depending on the type of the object invoking it –Polymorphism means “many forms” virtual functions –Use the type of the object being pointed to determine which version of the virtual function to call –virtual functions are overridden by derived classes –To declare a function virtual precede its declaration with the virtual keyword /* Here is the solution. Virtual functions come in two flavors (normal and pure).*/

© Copyright 1992–2005 by Deitel & Associates, Inc. and Pearson Education Inc. All Rights Reserved. 17.6 Polymorphism (Cont.) Abstract classes are too general to be instantiated –Make a class abstract by declaring a pure virtual function A pure virtual function has virtual before and = 0 after its declaration A pure virtual function cannot be defined –Abstract classes can be used to define pointers The pointers can then be pointed to objects of any concrete class derived from the abstract class Concrete classes are classes that can be instantiated –A concrete class must override all pure virtual functions it inherits from its base class (if that base class is abstract)
