I think you mean even if the function has body in _interface, it is still treated as pure virtual?

How to prove it (is pure virtual)?

I think even if you put the body into a pure virtual function, you can not utilize the function (body), right (for example. invoking it)? During compiling process, it is just discarded?

In your code, you are invoking Func from class Derived. What I mean is you can not utilize Func from class Base. Right?

Your code is wrong. I am discussing __interface, and if you change your code from class Base to __interface Base, your code can not compile.

I have got your point, which is, in __interface we can put function body and implement and non-pure virtual function, and the function body is not ignored by compiler. Right?

"The pure-virtualness of a function and whether or not it contains a body are independent issues."

Why do you say it is independent issue?

__interface IFoo {

	int goo() {return 0;}
};

int main()
{
	cout << IFoo::goo() << endl;

	return 0;
}
