Since throw specification is NOT the part of function signature , there is nothing wrong with the code. Moreover, it will normally call "abc()" of the derived class in the following situation:

Foo* fo;
fo = new DFoo();
fo->abc();
delete fo;

This is the case of function overwriting with both the classes base and derived have same signature function abc(), with base class function being declared as virtual, derived class object can access its own method/function...hence no ambiguity with the complier and i think code must run successfully.

No, it is problematic. the base class function can not be access by derived class object anyway due to function hiding. because the base and derived classes have same function name but diff signature

Chun..Don't worry we have the keyword "using" which can bring the base class function into the scope of derived class.

@NK : thanks for the link. It only talks about the exception specification list, not about its order. So it does compile.

No i don't think it is right as in the base class the function is defined as virtual but in the subclass there is no definition.
