c++ class inheritance question

[VJ]

Hello,

Again with a C++ implementation question.

Suppose I have the following situation:

class A {
  protected:
    void f();
}

class B: protected A {
  public:
     voidf();
}

When f is called in class B, I don't want to override it, nor add functionality. I just want the f() from A to be used. IIRC that there was a way of specifying this, but I can't remember...

I could override it, like so:

void B::f() {
   A::f()
}

But I thought the same could be achieved wihout overriding...

Thanks!

Found it...

class B: protected A {
  public:
     using A::f;
}
