What happened to the typeid/type_info proposal?
I have seen several discussions regarding adding a small typeid/type_info library similar to the one introduced by Alexandrescu in Modern C++ Design. Has there been any progress on this issue? see: http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2005/02/80969.php Best Regards, Johan Torp

In my Boost.Log library implementation I have such type_info wrapper. I proposed to extract it from the library as a separate header in the Boost.Log alpha announcement not long ago, but I got no feedback. In case if you're interested, the implementation is in the Vault: http://tinyurl.com/3cdg88 You may find the wrapper in boost/log/detail/type_info_wrapper.hpp. If it is considered to be worth extracting from the library, I could easily do that. -- Best regards, Andrey mailto:andysem@mail.ru

I am definitely interested! I believe others are too since it has been proposed in the past. --Johan -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/What-happened-to-the-typeid-type_info-proposal--tf3815... Sent from the Boost - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
