Compiler Warning (level 3) C4265
Error Message
'class' : class has virtual functions, but destructor is not virtual
When a class has virtual functions but a nonvirtual destructor, objects of the type might not be destroyed properly when the class is destroyed through a base class pointer.
This warning is off by default. See Compiler Warnings That Are Off by Default for more information.
