[code snipped]

I'm having a hard time understanding what the code does except what
amounts to using function pointers (or boost::function objects)
instead of methods.  The code is dynamic because the function pointers
can be updated at any time.  Am I missing something?

I was wanting something more like section 12.7 of _Design&Evolution of
C++_.  At first, I guessed that maybe that's what you were doing, but
then I wondered why C inherits from B instead of C just contains a B*,
as in section 12.7.
