I want to override some functions in CWorkspace but since it's protected inner class, how could I derived it? If it can not be derived, what's the purpose of the virtual function?

Thanks

Hello, I think you right, we added

CXTPTabClientWnd::CWorkspace* CXTPTabClientWnd::CreateWorkspace()
{
if (m_bEnableGroups)
return new CWorkspace();

return new CSingleWorkspace();
}

so in next version you will be able to override CXTPTabClientWnd and its CreateWorkspace

Can you hint us why you need custom CWorkspace?

In my current project, I want to override
virtual BOOL DrawIcon (CDC* pDC, CPoint pt, CXTPTabManagerItem* pItem, BOOL bDraw, CSize& szIcon)
function in CWordspace to provide more control to draw the icon, eg drawing some kind of overlay on the icon etc.

BTW: Why not just make it a public inner class, so we can derive it? Also, if it can not be derived, why you guys make several virtual functions in it?

Ok, I see now.

They are virtual because they override virtual methods of base class. For next version CWorkspace become public class.
