Now people are trying to emulate the functionality of typeof. They want users to register their types and the library is still not as capable as a native typeof.
I totally agree with this, except native typeof is not available on most compilers. Considering the fact that companies tend to stick with compilers (like many still use VC6 -- believe it or not), the native typeof is not going to be available to most people for a few more years after the typeof is in the Standard. Are we willing to wait 3 - 5 years? Regards, Arkadiy
