    derived class

    Hello everyone,


    What does the following statement about derived class mean?

    http://www.gotw.ca/gotw/059.htm

    --------------------
    Unreasonable Statement #1: "Polymorphism doesn't work in C++ because you can't make an arbitrary class usable in place of a Base& without changing it (to derive from Base)."
    --------------------


    thanks in advance,
    George
