Function
Typical type information in a function name looks like this:
- Optional: Prefix
_(means __based property is used) - Access level and function type
- Conditional: __based property, if used
- Conditional: adjustor property (as encoded unsigned number), if thunk function
- Conditional: CV-class modifier of function, if non-static member function
- Function property
The table below shows codes for access level and function type:
| none | static | virtual | thunk | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| private: | A, B |
C, D |
E, F |
G, H |
| protected: | I, J |
K, L |
M, N |
O, P |
| public: | Q, R |
S, T |
U, V |
W, X |
| none | Y, Z |
This kind of thunk function is always virtual, and used to represent the logical this adjustor property, which means an offset to the true this value in some multiple inheritance situations.

“The uses of travel are occasional, and short; but the best fruit it finds, when it finds it, is conversation; and this is a main function of life.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The press and politicians. A delicate relationship. Too close, and danger ensues. Too far apart and democracy itself cannot function without the essential exchange of information. Creative leaks, a discreet lunch, interchange in the Lobby, the art of the unattributable telephone call, late at night.”
—Howard Brenton (b. 1942)
