func(const base& obj)
what does the const semantics mean? What is constant here ? Is obj a const reference to a non-const object or a non-const reference to a const object?

objis a reference to aconstobject.There is no such thing as a “non-const reference”, since a reference cannot be changed to refer to something else after it has been created.
