I'm not getting the meaning of this... what do you mean with 'protection against somebody changing the base'? If someone changes the base then he's responsible for changing *all* the subclasses, too, otherwise Liskov doesn't hold anymore! > I don't find that compiler option useful, at all. It usually can be useful since (usually) overloads follow the original function path of inheritance, i.e. if foo(int) is virtual, often foo(double) is too; however this is not mandatory and the warning just indicates this. However if someone (you) decided that virtual is not necessary, fine. I'd personally had used another name to avoid confusion, but it's personal preference, obviously... -- Lorenzo Marcantonio Logos Srl _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
