The heading reads "Applying XP in a Phased-Based Organization". I believe it should say "Phase-Based" sans the first "d".

The lead-in joke says:

Second para under Design Trade-offs |
It says here that "C++ adds virtual method lookups--four bytes per method [...]". As far as I understand it, this isn't true.
There's a four-byte overhead per _additional vtable_, where a vtable consists of a number of methods.
There's one vtable associated with each abstract base/interface, and so the overhead amounts to four bytes per base class with virtual methods.
Note from the Author or Editor:
Change sentence to:
"C++ adds virtual method lookups--requiring more memory and an extra level of indirection." |
