Re: [boost] Is there any interest in a library which solves C++ class reflection feature just like Java does?

So please, don't start a discussion stating that we need a compile-time/run-time or c++11/c++98 library. All the combinations have its usage, each one with its advantages and liabilities.

Point is that it's possible to build runtime reflection on top of compile-time reflection, but the opposite isn't true. One can even claim that runtime reflection *must* be implemented on top of compile-time reflection, so proposing *just* runtime reflection is pointless. Roman Perepelitsa.
