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
