Summary
In base classes with a high cost of change (particularly ones in libraries and frameworks): Prefer to make public functions nonvirtual. Prefer to make virtual functions private, or protected if derived classes need to be able to call the base versions. (Note that this advice does not apply to destructors; see Item 50.)
