Embedded C++

RTTI, dynamic memory allocation and exceptions are among the most hotly debated subjects in embedded circles. (ref: http://forums.codeguru.com/showthread.php?539611-I-have-7-days-to-prepare-for-an-Embedded-C-Interview-Any-tips-and-good-links)

RTTI is used by dynamic_cast to figure out if a base ptr can be reinterpreted as a derived class ptr . look at https://blog.feabhas.com/2013/09/casting-what-could-possibly-go-wrong/

Also look at this https://cs.nyu.edu/courses/fall16/CSCI-UA.0470-001/slides/MemoryLayoutMultipleInheritance.pdf for description about virtual inheritance and memory layouts therein.
