In C++, you won't get late binding (aka dynamic dispatching, aka virtual
methods) this way. In Ada, you will.
You could provide some kind of wrapper function to obtain the same
effect in C++, but I think the Ada solution to this particular problem
(i.e. no need for a wrapper function) is clearly more elegant.
