Struct template typeid_

boost::type_erasure::typeid_

Synopsis

// In header: <boost/type_erasure/check_match.hpp>

template<typename T> 
struct typeid_ {
};

Description

Enables runtime type information. This is required if you want to use any_cast or typeid_of.

[Note] Note

typeid_ cannot be specialized because several library components including any_cast would not work correctly if its behavior changed. There is no need to specialize it anyway, since it works for all types. typeid_ also cannot be passed to call. To access it, use typeid_of.
