Now that we know how to initialize structs and other types in C++, we can take a look at inheritance and learn how to make structs derive from each other. There’s a lot of extended functionality here compared to C# class inheritance. Read on to learn the basics as well as advanced features like multiple inheritance and virtual inheritance!

Now that we’ve seen how function pointers work and perform in Burst, let’s use them to build a higher-level feature: virtual functions!
This week we continue to look at the C++ that IL2CPP outputs for C# to get a better understanding of what our C# is really doing. Today we’ll look at how abstract methods work, whether casting of sealed classes is faster than non-sealed classes, and what happens when creating a delegate.
Implementing interfaces and deriving from classes is commonplace in many codebases. Today we’ll make it so C++ classes can implement C# interfaces and derive from C# classes. This means our C++ game code will be able to implement custom IComparer classes for sorting a List and derive custom EventArgs for dispatching in events. Read on to see how this is implemented and how to use it in our projects.
Continuing from last time, this article begins covering features of C# classes that aren’t in AS3. We’ll begin with abstract classes and functions, which AS3 required workaround code to enforce even at run-time. Today’s article shows you how to use C# to cleanly enforce these at compile-time.
