I keep hearing a lot about functors in C++. Can someone give me an overview as to what they are and in what cases they would be useful? I Just can't seem to wrap my head around them. As I understand it's dynamically adding logic to a class. Are classes within the framework prepared for this? Why should I just extend the class and... The word "functor" comes from category theory, which is a very general, very abstract branch of mathematics. It has been borrowed by designers of functional languages in at least two different ways. In the ML family of languages, a functor is a module that takes one or more other modules as a parameter. It's considered an advanced feature, and most beginning. A reason not to use inline is that some debuggers won't allow you to set a break point or step into an inlined function.
