Ive searched in boost a typeid wrapper like the one Andrei Alexandrescu uses in his book (Modern C++ Design), but didnt found any, except one in the python library. It seemed very much what Im searching, so I'm wondering why it is in the python library. I think it is a very useful feature outside python library either. So Im asking if it shouldnt be a general class in the boost library, instead of being a feature to be used by the python library only?
I have done most of the work to move the python one out "on its own." Unfortunately, I ran into a snag. Specifically, I can not get all the tests to build correctly using bjam. I seem to have everything working for unix, using makefiles, but can not get it to work with bjam. I think this is essential, especially to run all the tests on non-unix platforms. <advertisement> I would be happy to resume the effort if I can get some specific involvement from someone who can help me get everything running with Boost.Build. </advertisement>
