objects known inside the class

[Gary Wessle]

Hi

can the class know the object identifier? say
class intell
{
...
}

intell i686;

I need to reference the string "i686" inside the class?

No.

say
class intell
{
...
}

intell i686;

What about nameless objects? What would you exect for those?

class intell {
std::string var_name;
public:
intell( std::string v ): var_name( v ) { }
};
intell i686("i686");

Now 'var_name' will allow you to reference the string "i686" inside the
class.
