Further Information

Object serialization and object inspector user interfaces are concerns that can be orthogonally implemented using introspection via meta-object protocols (MOP). The C++ language lacks a formal meta-object protocol, although some are available as source pre-processors. A full MOP is not necessary for many classes of problems where basic introspection is useful. This paper describes a technique: extensible visitation of objects as a basic introspection primitive.
