ab: Summary: Nowadays complex software systems are designed and implemented
    with the help of the object-oriented paradigm principally. However,
    object-oriented languages support the object-oriented paradigm in
    different ways with different constructs. C++ has a sophisticated
    inheritence notation based on access modifiers. C++ distinguishes
    virtual, pure virtual and non-virtual methods. Java uses final classes
    and methods to disable inheritance. However, Java does not support
    multiple inheritance. Eiffel allows renaming inherited methods.In this
    paper we present some method utilites for C++ to create safer and more
    flexible object-oriented systems. We present how the method renaming
    can be implemented. We developed constructs to create final and
    unhidable methods. These constructs are implemented with the help of
    C++ template facilities. We present scenarios where one can write safer
    code with our constructs.
