That's right, the difference between C++ "pure virtual" and "virtual" is
that a virtual function has an implementation but pure virtual only defines
an interface.
But can we get back to my original PHP question: Can I do something like the
following in php:
class Base {
function Foo() { echo "Base"; }
}
class Derived1 extends Base {
function Foo() { echo "Derived1"; }
}
class Derived2 extends Base {
function Foo() { echo "Derived2"; }
}
function Example ( $objvar ) {
$objvar->Foo();
}
...
$obj1 = new Base();
$obj2 = new Derived1();
$obj3 = new Derived2();
Example($obj1);
Example($obj2);
Example($obj3);
I think what I am asking is, is there any concept of a virtual function in
PHP, with a virtual function table?

A bit late in replying - but what the hay (or is that "hey"??) oh well...
>From my understanding of virtual functions (and it's been at least 3 to 4
years since I've done C++) is that a "virtual function" has basic
functionality and a "pure virtual function" has no, and can't have, and
code.
Please correct me if I'm wrong
