With interaction with objects I meant e.g. through the meta-level instantiate a class, get/set the data member values, call a function on that instance, retrieve the function's return value and so on. I may have missed that, but I couldn't find examples on the synopsis page for this functionality.
Reflex code for this would look something like
Type t = Type::ByName("foo"); Object instance = t.Construct(); Object ret_obj = instance.Invoke("myFunction");
Very interesting. Where do you get the object code for foo::myFunction? Or have you implemented a full C++ interpreter? Have you considered something like the object interface of Boost.Python? Type t = Type::ByName("foo"): Object instance = t(); Object ret_obj = instance.member("myFunction")(); Then you'd also have, e.g. Object enlarged = instance & 5; -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
