Detailed Description

The Translator class translates compiler dependent type names provided by the RunTime Type Information (RTTI) system to generic type names. This class provides an interface to register combinations of generic type names and RTTI type information and for later translation. Generic type names are arbitrary but must be unique.

Member Function Documentation

const std::string ot::Translator::getGenericName (  const std::string &  rttiName  )  const throw (std::runtime_error)

Translates rttiName to the according generic type name. Throws an exception if the type is not known by the system. Parameters: rttiName  the RTTI name to be translated Returns: the according generic type name

bool ot::Translator::knowsType (  const std::string  genericName  )  const

Checks whether the generic type name genericName is known by the system. Parameters: genericName  the generic type name to be checked Returns: whether the generic type name is known

void ot::Translator::registerTypeName (  const std::string &  genericName, const std::type_info &  typeInfo )

Registers a combination of a generic type name and the type name provided by the compiler for the RunTime Type Information (RTTI) system. The RTTI name is automatically generated according to the typeInfo parameter. Parameters: genericName  the generic type name to be registered (must be unique!) typeInfo  RTTI type information of the type to be registered
