Bug ID: 64445
Summary: virtual functions polymorphism
Product: gcc
Version: 4.7.2
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++

example of described bug
A base class "base" has two virtual functions
virtual void Y( float xx );
virtual void Y( int xx);
A new class "ext" that inherits from base class re-implements the function
virtual void Y( float xx );
Calling function Y(float) on a pointer "base *" pointing to an ext instance
results in a call to "base::Y(int)".
I would expect a call to the "ext::Y(float)" function. Is it a bug or is it my
mistake?
It's the same behavior in gcc 4.7.2 and gcc 5.0.0.
