I know that, in one way, inheritance is useful is eliminating a duplicate code. But I was wondering how much it is useful in terms of making the application .EXE smaller. Here is an example:
Say I have a form class MyParent in one .vcx library.
Then I create another .vcx library and store there a bunch of form classes like MyChild1, MyChild2, etc. all based on the class MyParent.
If I didn’t have the MyParent class and simply created a bunch of form classes MyChild1, MyChild2, etc, would the size of the .EXE be much bigger?
