Virtual functions are implemented on on the base of vtables, which in turn are implemented using function pointers. So it would be good to get a grasp on functionpointers (they exist in C++ as well), also I believe this is not a C mailing list, take a look at stackoverflow or a c/c++ site or book of your choice. If you know how a pointer works, you will find it easy to understand how a functionpointer works.

I assumed there similar to way C++ stores virtual functions internally in the vtable for virtual functions by the compiler and checks the table at runtime. Please let me know if I'm wrong in my understanding. > Thanks, > Nick > _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
