Question

In C# i can create such List to store class types:

List<Type> types_list = new List<Type>();
types_list.add(typeof(int));
types_list.add(typeof(Process)); //and etc

can i do the same in C++?

Answer 1

You can store a type list with boost MPL.
Example:

#include <boost mpl stuff>

int main()
{
   typedef boost::mpl::vector<char, int> types;
   typedef boost::mpl::push_back<types, Process>::type newTypes;
   boost::mpl::at_c<newTypes, 2>::type objectOfTypeProcess;

}

You really shouldn’t use this library unless you know what you’re doing, so my example isn’t that specific. You might have to spend some time to get used to mpl anyway.
