Layout Costs for Adding Encapsulation1.1. The C++ Object ModelA Simple Object ModelA Table-driven Object ModelThe C++ Object ModelAdding InheritanceHow the Object Model Effects Programs1.2. A Keyword DistinctionKeywords, SchmeewordsThe Politically Correct Struct1.3. An Object DistinctionThe Type of a PointerAdding Polymorphism
2. The Semantics of Constructors
2.1. Default Constructor ConstructionMember Class Object with Default ConstructorBase Class with Default ConstructorClass with a Virtual FunctionClass with a Virtual Base ClassSummary2.2. Copy Constructor ConstructionDefault Memberwise InitializationBitwise Copy SemanticsBitwise Copy Semantics—Not!Resetting the Virtual Table PointerHandling the Virtual Base Class Subobject2.3. Program Transformation SemanticsExplicit InitializationArgument InitializationReturn Value InitializationOptimization at the User LevelOptimization at the Compiler LevelThe Copy Constructor: To Have or To Have Not?Summary2.4. Member Initialization List
