Re: Deriving from interface implementation

Glib::ObjectBase is a virtual base class. The constructor of a virtual 
base class is called from the most derived class. When ModelImpl is the 
most derived class, its constructor calls 
Glib::ObjectBase(typeid(ModelImpl)). When Derived is the most derived 
class, Glib::ObjectBase(typeid(ModelImpl)) is not called. Instead 
ObjectBase's default constructor is called from Derived's constructor. 
That's not what you want in this case. You must call the right 
ObjectBase constructor from Derived's constructor, like

class Derived: public ModelImpl
{
     Derived()
     : Glib::ObjectBase(typeid(Derived)),
       ModelImpl() {}
};
