Bernd Mathiske commented on MESOS-2756:
---------------------------------------
IMHO we can finish this ticket and implement it either the way
[~jvanremoortere] proposed on May 27 or at least make a clear statement in the
style guide that explains the required pattern (covering BOTH the argument-less
and the copy constructor).
I suggest to include ("protected:" at the beginning) and "private:" at the end
of the macro, so nobody inadvertently makes anything just protected. Users can
then write whatever scope modifier they want right after applying the macro.
> Update style guide: Avoid object slicing

> In order to improve the safety of our code base, let's augment the style
> guide to:
> "Disallow public construction of base classes"
> so that we can avoid the object slicing problem. This is a good pattern to
> follow in general as it prevents subtle semantic bugs like the following:
> {code:title=ObjectSlicing.cpp|borderStyle=solid}
> #include <stdio.h>
> #include <vector>
> class Base {
> public:
> Base(int _v) : v(_v) {}
> virtual int get() const { return v; }
> protected:
> int v;
> };
> class Derived : public Base {
> public:
> Derived(int _v) : Base(_v) {}
> virtual int get() const { return v + 1; }
> };
> int main() {
> Base b(5);
> Derived d(5);
> std::vector<Base> vec;
> vec.push_back(b);
> vec.push_back(d);
> for (const auto& v : vec) {
> printf("[%d]\n", v.get());
> }
> }
> {code}
