Let's say I have the following class hierarchy in C++:

class Base;
class Derived1 : public Base;
class Derived2 : public Base;


class ParamType;
class DerivedParamType1 : public ParamType;
class DerivedParamType2 : public ParamType;

And I want a polymorphic function, func(ParamType), defined in Base to take a parameter of type DerivedParamType1 for Derived1 and a parameter of type DerivedParamType2 for Derived2.

How would this be done without pointers, if possible?
