I was just about to make the proclamation that the standard C++'s rtti
can't quite do all the stuff that .NET reflection can do, but I
thought I would check. Perhaps my C++ knowledge is not quite up to
date!
Does the latest go around of C++ envision richer run time type
information similar to that offered by Delphi or .NET?
I know that rtti lets me get a typeinfo with the string name of the
class in it, but I can't see a way to get a class given a string name?
Am I still stuck in switch land and factory patterns for this?
Similarly, I would like to go back and forth between enumerations and
strings.
Also, does anyone know if GNU offers "language extensions" to do this
exact thing?
Thanks!
