All you need is a field in the struct to point to your vtable. Please try to think more charitably and not be so aggressive. Even if the author was wrong, which they aren't, doesn't mean they don't have the kernel of a good idea.

Charitability is not a tool merely for being nice to others, but being nice to yourself. You learn more this way.

And I think you should refrain from going around patronizing people here at first place, especially when you preface that patronizing tone with a token, plagiarized argument that only exists for the plausible deniability of your passive aggressive stance. But the goal of your comment was very much an aggression.

Why is there a constant urge for personal attacks here? You could have spent your time demonstrating how my comment was wrong, that's not what you did, you didn't point where or how the author of the linked article implemented method polymorphism. You just used your first sentence as a pretext to then aggress me out of nowhere.

"plagiarized argument"

I'm just curious what I plagiarized.

You perfectly understand what "passive-aggressive" means. Just don't go around patronizing people like that, nobody died and made you god.

You won't believe this, but I was neither attacking you first time, nor "passive-aggressive" the second time. I asked a question I didn't know the answer of, and I wanted to read what you think I copied. I'll live without the answer.
