C++ pure virtual function have body [duplicate]

Your assumption that pure virtual function cannot be called is absolutely incorrect. When a function is declared pure virtual, it simply means that this function cannot get called dynamically, through a virtual dispatch mechanism. Yet, this very same function can easily be called statically, non-virtually, directly (without virtual dispatch).

In C++ language a non-virtual call to a virtual function is performed when a qualified name of the function is used in the call, i.e. when the function name specified in the call has the <class name>::<function name> form.

For example

struct S 
{
  virtual void foo() = 0;
};

void S::foo() 
{
  // body for pure virtual function `S::foo`
}

struct D : S 
{
  void foo() 
  {
    S::foo();       
    // Non-virtual call to `S::foo` from derived class

    this->S::foo(); 
    // Alternative syntax to perform the same non-virtual call 
    // to `S::foo` from derived class
  }
};

int main() 
{
  D d;

  d.S::foo(); 
  // Another non-virtual call to `S::foo`
}
