// g++ v2.2.2 for Sun-Sparc-SunOS v4.1.1
// Explicit call of pure virtual function compiles (shouldn't?) and
// code bombs (should use virtual table?)
#include <iostream.h>
struct base {
virtual void mbrfunc() = 0;
};
struct derived : public base {
void mbrfunc()
{ cout << "derived::mbrfunc\n"; }
};
int main() {
derived d;
d.mbrfunc(); // prints derived::mbrfunc, correctly
d.base::mbrfunc(); // prints ABORT (should not compile)
}
