&gt; &gt;I can only speak for Perl; it can do virtual functions just fine. I'd be a

&gt;
&gt;Java has virtual functions (nothing else, in some ways!). I don't doubt
&gt;that Perl 5 does too. 

that's not what I was talking about.

&gt;That wasn't the question. The question was whether
&gt;those systems are implementation compatible with the virtual function
&gt;scheme of some specific C++ compiler. 

that's what I was talking about.

&gt;That, I *know* is not true, at
&gt;least as far as Java is concerned. Java's setup is defined by the
&gt;Java Virtual Machine specification, and is specific to Java - it is
&gt;not defined to be compatible with anything. Java can call out to
&gt;native functions, but I imagine that is using the usual C calling
&gt;conventions.

how foolish of them.
