Binding of Virtual Functions

Explore how virtual functions work in C++ to enable dynamic binding rather than early binding. This lesson helps you understand polymorphism through a program that calls derived class functions at runtime. You will see how the correct function executes based on the actual object type, reinforcing essential concepts of object-oriented programming in C++.

We'll cover the following...

Problem

Write a program that illustrates that a virtual function cannot be early bound.

Sample runs

Here’s what you should see when you run the program.
