what is a virtual class?

Answer Posted / ramakrishna

It is used to avoid the ambiguity problem in c++ (multiple
inheritance).
when sub class inherits same members from 2 base classes.
compiler dont know which variable has assigned the value.

If u declare the class as virtual only one time is
inherited in its derived class.A copy will never get
inherited.
concept of virtual methods is different purpose.
like how we have abstract key word in java,we can acheive
method abstraction using virtual keyword before a method.

please select no if u really know this answer is wrong.
people with out having knowlede saying simple know hurts
the technical world.

Question In a class, there is a reference or pointer of an object of another class embedded, and the memory is either allocated or assigned to the new object created for this class. In the constructor, parameters are passed to initialize the data members and the embedded object reference to get inialized. What measures or design change should be advised for proper destruction and avioding memory leaks, getting pointers dangling for the embedded object memory allocation? Please suggest.

What measures or design change should be advised for proper destruction and avioding memory leaks, getting pointers dangling for the embedded object memory allocation? Please suggest. Answer # 1 use copy constructors 0 Shanthila There is something to be taken care in destructor, in copy constructor, suppose the memory is assigned to the embedded member object pointer with the parameter passed value, but if some other objects of different class also are pointing to this memory, then if some one deletes the object then this class member pointer object will become dangling, or if the object is not deleted properly then there will be memory leak. Please suggest the design change required to handle or avoid this situation
