I can't find an italics definition of "base class subobject" in [intro.object]. Can you point me to one?
Thanks. Unfortunately, the perceived definition in [intro.object] doesn't seem to be one. The mention in [class.derived] seems to be more like a definition, although there is certainly room for improvement. In short, I think the proposed change is not an improvement. |
Editorial meeting: We need to talk about "base class object" during name lookup, where we have no concrete object in sight. class.derived: Talk about base classes, not base class subobjects. Turn into a core issue. |
@jensmaurer Could you please create this CWG issue? |
This is already defined in [intro.object].
