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. Hi Roman,
Could you please show an example run-time reflection being build on top of compile-time reflection
Mirror is such a library.
or explain more on why this is true?
I think it's a good question which deserves a good answer, but due personal (or rather work) reasons I can't provide it right now. I'll try to get back to it next weekend. Roman Perepelitsa.
