Hi Guys, Compiling and then executing this program: #include <stdio.h>
class A { public: virtual void get() { printf ("A\n"); } }; class B:public A { public: virtual void get() { printf ("B\n"); } }; class C:public B { }; int main (void) { C c; C* p = &c; p->A::get(); (p->A::get)(); return 0; } Results in: A B Being displayed, rather than: A A As far as I can tell the parentheses around the class member access should not change anything.
