Object Oriented Test

Since there are so many ways to make object oriented C code, I decided to try out a few different methods and develop my favorite one. This is the result of that experiment. It's a simple example with a few classes and a simple class structure, with a parent Animal class and a child Dog class. The Animal class has a virtual method that the Dog class overwrites. It's a pretty simple method to do some really cool things, IMO. Other ways seemed to involve a lot more boilerplate code and didn't really look as pretty as I would have liked.

Build it

make

Try it

./test

Clean it

make clean

Check it for memory leaks (requires valgrind)

make memcheck
