     Compiler error C2723
 
     'function' : 'specifier' storage class specifier illegal on
     function definition
 
     The given specifier is not allowed on a function definition
     appearing outside of a class declaration. The virtual specifier
     can only be specified on a member function declaration appearing
     within the class declaration.
 
     The following is an example of this error:
 
          struct X
          {
             virtual void f();
             virtual void g();
          };
 
          virtual void X::f() {} // error, virtual specifier
          void X::g() {}         // OK
                                    -♦-
