This macro is used to allow dynamic casting within a class hierarchy. Docs:

Macro used to activate the Ponder RTTI system into a hierarchy of classes

The name therefore seems a little misleading. Suggestions?

Perhaps PONDER_DYNAMIC?

Weeena commented 8 years ago

Maybe PONDER_POLYMORPHIC? Or PONDER_THIS_TYPE?

The irony with PONDER_DYNAMIC would be that this macro establishes the static type of a class...

billyquith commented 8 years ago

I'm favouring PONDER_POLYMORPHIC. That is really the sole reason to use it.

billyquith commented 7 years ago

Done.
