bool operator==( const type_info& rhs ) const; | ||
bool operator!=( const type_info& rhs ) const; |
Checks if the objects refer to the same types.
Parameters
rhs | - | another type information object to compare to |
Return value
true
if the comparison operation holds true, false
otherwise.
Example
#include <iostream> #include <typeinfo> #include <string> #include <utility> class person { public: person(std::string&& n) : _name(n) {} virtual const std::string& name() const{ return _name; } private: std::string _name; }; class employee : public person { public: employee(std::string&& n, std::string&& p) : person(std::move(n)), _profession(std::move(p)) {} const std::string& profession() const { return _profession; } private: std::string _profession; }; void somefunc(const person& p) { if(typeid(employee) == typeid(p)) { std::cout << p.name() << " is an employee "; auto& emp = dynamic_cast<const employee&>(p); std::cout << "who works in " << emp.profession() << '\n'; } } int main() { employee paul("Paul","Economics"); somefunc(paul); }
Output:
Paul is an employee who works in Economics
