This question would be more appropriate for the [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mailing list. Please direct any followups to that list. Thanks.
In general it is not possible to inline a virtual function. There
might be a subclass of Derived which itself has an implementation of
func. Declaring func inline in Derived does not make it non-virtual.
