Detailed Description

This class holds information about reflected types. Each instance represents one type that is known to the reflection system.

Instances of this class are typically created through the macros from the StaticRTTI.h header. Each instance represents one type. This class holds information about derivation hierarchies and exposed properties. You can thus find out whether a type is derived from some base class and what properties of which types are available. Properties can then be read and modified on instances of this type.

The documentation for this class was generated from the following files:
