learn and implements it (using standard C mean portable).

Run-time type identification
1. Don't top-post. Your reply belongs following or interspersed with
properly trimmed quotes.

2. Your answer is incorrect. It does NOT mean that in C, as there is no
such thing.

Hi, I wrote a few classes recently and am writing a small GC implementation for C++. I will be implementing my own gc_ptr type maintain a list where I'll store pointers to allocated memory. I was wondering if it is possible to identify objects during runtime via RTTI because I don't want to be doing: gc_ptr<int>::doGC(); gc_ptr<double>::doGC();

Hello there, I would like to know what overheads there are to think of when using RTTI. I understand that enabling RTTI increases the sizes of the classes, but not the objects themselves. This doesn't sound too bad. What I'm worried about is whether there is a general performance overhead caused by enabling RTTI, such as enabling exceptions makes a C++ program slower even when there are no exceptions actually used. Are there similar...

Hey all, I know that dynamic_cast<> takes some time, but , for instance, is there a memoy cost associated in with it? Does it have to maintain a table in memory, thus bloating the runtime ram needs of my dll? Does it bloat the actual download size - would my dll be smaller without it? thanks - I'm using rtti in some instances, but I jsut want to know if it's costing me hundreds of K in extra download. -denny-

I'm trying to work out a design for dynamically determining file types, and for generating new files of a given type. I'm curious to know what others think of my current strategy. Is it "so einfach wie möglich machen, aber nicht einfacher" or "Rube Goldberg"? The first part of this has to do with a technique used in the C++ Standard Library, so I suspect the purist will not have any objection. It's the approach used to build the...

Hi Friends, I have a question about RTTI. 1) In C++ we have vptr pointing to vtables which helps to make use of pointer as polymorphic entities. 2) Without knowing object type I can call methods of object using those pointers. So in which case RTTI is needed? ( Why I need to know my object type?) Regards,

I'm studying the RTTI, and my current work is concern for how to get the self-defined type at runtime, that's exactly what the RTTI does. I mean, in my application, I built several self-defined data types, so I have to implement the RTTI by myself. I need a simple and effective example to help me decide how to design. Can someon help me?

I know than dynamic_cast check string name of derived to base class and if one of them match, return the pointer of that object or else zero. I suppose, I dynamic_cast instead of strings, checks integers, then this procedure will be more fast, so I create something like this: --------------------------------------------- class A { public:

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
