I've been considering writing some nifty stuff in C++, but I ran into
a problem on one part of the (so far theoretical) implementation.

When an object containing member functions is written out to the disk and
then read back in at a later time, I assume that the binary image is
read back into memory.  This has problems, however, if the program has
been recompiled and the locations of the code for the member functions have
changed.  Has anyone dealt with this problem or the more general one of
dynamically loading and linking objects and their associated member functions?
