A has a function fun() which B tries to overload as fun(int). Sounds simple and the program looks correct but it doesn’t compile. Have a look at http://codepad.org/NQ3JNuRr . Its hard to digest for it is an obvious code to compile in C++. The code listing is as below: #include<iostream> using namespace std; class A{ public: void fun(){cout<<"fun\n";} }; class B: public A{ void fun(int i){cout<<"funB\n";} }; int main() { B b; b.
