I'm trying to implement a rather large object that implements many interfaces. Some of these interfaces are pure virtual. I may have a problem in diamond inheritance. Visual Studio is reporting a warning of C4250 ('class1' : inherits 'class2::member' via dominance)
. First of all these classes are inherited virtually as it should be. The following is the partial class design that causes this problem.
A B C
\ / \ /
\ / \ /
AB BC
| |
| BC2
| |
\ D: Implementation of B, C, BC, BC2
\ /
Big
In this entire tree only D implements virtual methods, there is no other definition of the method in question. And all virtual methods of B is listed in warnings. If important, D is a complete class.
I read this happens with Boost serialization and it is safe to disregard the warning.
Is this method I am trying to achieve valid? Is it safe to disregard this warning?
Note 1: This is not a duplicate of Visual Studio Compiler warning C4250 ('class1' : inherits 'class2::member' via dominance), I have tried the solution proposed there.
Note 2: I can also send class diagram but its a little more complicated than this.
EDIT: Full warning is as follows:
warning C4250: 'gge::resource::ImageResource' : inherits
'gge::graphics::ImageTexture::gge::graphics::ImageTexture::drawin'
via dominance
gge::resource::ImageResource
is Big in the drawing, gge::graphics::ImageTexture
is D, drawin is one of the six methods I get warning for.
Everything is absolutely valid. A compiler is allowed to warn about valid code, no problem here. You can try silencing the warning with a using
declaration. If this doesn't work (probably due to an MSVC bug), silence it with a pragma
.
