It is true that int Derived::Base() is hiding the name of the base class inside the class, but this is not the kind of name-hiding that (I think) the warning was intended to guard against; nor is it name-hiding that is likely to lead to an error. I think -Woverloaded-virtual should not give a warning in this case. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
