I'm not sure if there's a way around that other than to add
some code in the class to register itself. You could use a
static constructor that adds itself to a list.
Or, to give each class a shared ID, you could add a static
member which returns some variation of its typeinfo. In fact,
typeid(any_class) returns a unique identifier for each class
(an instance of TypeInfo), maybe you can use it directly.
Hi Adam,
static this is probably way to go, I wanted to avoid this
solution because if it leads to copy-pasting code to every child.
I need to have IDs small like 8bits, co I probably can't use
typeid...
Thank you for answer. Knowing that someting cannot be done is
better than spend on this another few hour.
Great book btw.
