Function Documentation

template<typename T >

const char* edm::typelookup::className

(

)

Returns the registered string (usually the class name) for the type T

template<typename T >

const std::type_info& edm::typelookup::classTypeInfo

(

)

Returns the std::type_info for the class T. This is done just by calling typeid(T). So why bother? The call to typeid(T) requires one to include the header file which defines class T while the call to classTypeInfo<T>() does not.

std::pair< const char *, const std::type_info * > edm::typelookup::findType

(

const char *

iClassName

)

Returns a std::type_info and a long lived const char* containing the name associated with the string iClassName. If the string is not associated with a known type then returns two null pointers
