I'm using MS Visual C++ 6.0. This is what I'm doing: When I look at the type_info object's name(), it always returns "CBase", even if it's actually a CDerived object.
You have ommitted the most important pieces in your code sample...
Compile and run the above on your compiler. If it fails, you have a problem with your compiler. Otherwise, you probably have a problem with your code. Note that you only get the most derived type, if the class is polymorphic (i.e., has at least one virtual function).
Thanks, that fixed it. I could have sworn I tried that before, but I guess not... :) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
