Hello, is there an automatic way to determine the base class member function pointer &base::fn from the derived member function pointer &derived::fn? Or do you know that there is no way to do this with current c++? It should work like this: class base { public: virtual void fn( void ); }; class derived : public base { public: void fn( void ); } main() { base_pointer = get_base_pointer( &derived::fn ); } Thanks, Siegfried
