Hi!

I'm new here, and I'm not quite a developper. I'm a musician, and use 
fltk/fluid to design small and simple OSC interfaces.

I need to get the parent of a Fl_Box type to determine what the handle method 
does.
To be more accurate, I need to check if the parent class is light_xyPad (which 
is a class I've written, quite close to Fl_Group, but with some private 
variables).

I thought about using the typeinfo lib, and use something like this:

typeid(this->parent()).name()

(because I didn't figure out how to use type() function, always empty), but the 
point is that parent() is of type Fl_Group, and thus, I only get Fl_Group as a 
type, even if my Widget has the light_xyPad class.

How can I manage to get the parent class? Or, maybe better said: is there a way 
to do this (as I know that c++ is not exactly aimed to do that, and I didn't 
understand much to RTTI).

Thanks

Aurélien
