Detailed Description

Exception for a call to an abstract class function.

For a method virtual abstract class exists that needs to have instance because of interation over a base class pointer. e.g vector<AbsBase*> Vec; for(vc=Vec.begin();vc!=Vec.end();vc++) (*vc)->method();

but: X=new AbsBase() is forbidden by the compiler but it always possible to obtain a pure AbsBase pointer by casting and this exception is to be placed in these sorts of methods in the Abstract class.

It is a runtime error constructed a runtime reinterpret cast.

Anyone has a better way of doing this ? Please let me know!!! – Note: I believe this was tabled for Cx00 but rejected (why?)
