+<overview>
+<p>This rule finds calls to pure virtual member functions in constructors and destructors. Such calls do not perform virtual dispatch, and can cause undefined behavior.</p>
+
+</overview>
+<recommendation>
+<p>Do not rely on virtual dispatch in constructors and destructors. Instead, each class should be responsible for acquiring and releasing its resources.</p>
