Here is another, more standard version:
switch(model.ctor){
case DivideSentenceStep1:
case DivideSentenceStep2:
}
All you need to do is setting ctor to the real constructor of your
class. But on the other hand case by type is bad smell anyway, maybe
your classes should implement what's in the case.
Cheers,
Ralf.
