c++中虚析构函数的作用

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class Base{
    public:
        Base(){
            cout<<"这是父亲的构造函数"<<endl; 
        }
        virtual ~Base()
        {
            cout<<"这是父亲的析构函数"<<endl; 
        }
        virtual void DoSomething()
        {
            cout<<"Do something in class Base!"<<endl;
        }
}; 
class Derived:public Base{
    public:
        Derived(){
            cout<<"这是儿子的构造函数"<<endl; 
        }
        ~Derived(){
            cout<<"这是儿子的析构函数"<<endl; 
        }
        void DoSomething(){
            cout<<"Do something in class Derived!"<<endl;
        }

};
int main(){
    Derived *pTest1 = new Derived();
    pTest1->DoSomething();
    delete pTest1;

    cout<<endl;
    Base *pTest2 = new Derived();
    pTest2->DoSomething() ;
    delete pTest2;
    return 0;
}

结果

要是去掉~Base()析构函数前的virtual关键字，则子类的析构函数不会被调用，这样会造成内存泄漏。
