Let’s investigate the generated code of thedump()functions/methods and alsoobject::print_color(),
and see the memory layout for the structures-objects (for 32-bit code).


So, here are thedump()methods for several classes, generated by MSVC 2008 with/Oxand/Ob0options

Listing 3.88: Optimizing MSVC 2008 /Ob0

??_C@_09GCEDOLPA@color?$DN?$CFd?6?$AA@ DB 'color=%d', 0aH, 00H ; `string'
?print_color@object@@QAEXXZ PROC ; object::print_color, COMDAT
; _this$ = ecx
mov eax, DWORD PTR [ecx]
push eax


; 'color=%d', 0aH, 00H
push OFFSET ??_C@_09GCEDOLPA@color?$DN?$CFd?6?$AA@
call _printf
add esp, 8
ret 0
?print_color@object@@QAEXXZ ENDP ; object::print_color


(^27) The/Ob0option stands for disabling inline expansion since function inlining can make our experiment harder
