A class that provides some but not all of the
implementation for a virtual base class is often called
mixin. Derivation done just for the purpose of redefining
the virtual functions in the base classes is often called
mixin inheritance. Mixin classes typically don't share
common bases..

Answer / reejusri
Mixin is a class that does not implement any method but are
in fact has only pure virtual methods. The implementor
decides the logic for these methods.
The term mixin were originally explored in the Lisp
language In C++, the term has been used to describe classes
in a particular (multiple) inheritance arrangement:
As superclasses of a single class that themselves have a
common virtual base
class .
We would like to specify an extension without pre-
determining what exactly it can extend. This is equivalent
to specifying a subclass while leaving its superclass as a
parameter to be determined later. The benefit is that a
single class can be used to express an incremental
extension, valid for a variety of classes.

suppose A is a base class and B is the derved class. Both have a method foo which is defined as a virtual method in the base class. You have a pointer of classs B and you typecast it to A. Now when you call pointer->foo, which method gets called? The next part of the question is, how does the compiler know which method to call?
