Gcc can't either; but if your platforms has dlsym(3) or its equivalent, and if the code was compiled and linked with appropriate flags (which are platform-specific), then you can lookup symbols by name at runtime. If you have control over "Object", a much more portable solution is to have objects "register" themselves in some global map, in which you can later look them up.
