virtual	by ToLazyToThink	2005-03-15 11:51:48
That one is for efficiency. Most compilers implement virtual methods using a table of function pointers. That is no where near as efficent as calling the method directly (possibly even inlining it). One of the principles of C++'s design is: You don't pay for what you don't use. So if you don't use virtual, you don't have to pay the overhead of the function pointer tables. As far as the defaults for private, protected, public, I don't even remember the defaults. I always spell it out in my code.
