<<C++ actually does not bundle code with the structs. If a member function
is not virtual, the compiler will just binds a obj.foo() reference to its
obj::foo() counterpart.  On the other hand, if a member function is
virtual, then function pointers, like you mentioned above, are used.
Anyway, just a minor detail; they're still just glorified structs. ;)>>

YOu should better say "typical C++ implementations" rather than C++, I see
nothing in the draft standard that would support your claim that this is
implied by the language definition.
