RTTR

C++ Reflection Library

RTTR stands for Run Time Type Reflection. It describes the ability of a computer program to introspect and modify an object at runtime. It is also the name of the library itself, which is written in C++ and released as open source library. You can find more information on: www.rttr.org

How to Use

Manual registration

#include <rttr/registration>
using namespace rttr;

struct MyStruct { MyStruct() {}; void func(double) {}; int data; };

RTTR_REGISTRATION
{
    registration::class_<MyStruct>("MyStruct")
         .constructor<>()
         .property("data", &MyStruct::data)
         .method("func", &MyStruct::func);
}

Iterate over members

type t = type::get<MyStruct>();
for (auto& prop : t.get_properties())
    std::cout << "name: " << prop.get_name();

for (auto& meth : t.get_methods())
    std::cout << "name: " << meth.get_name();

Constructing types

type t = type::get_by_name("MyStruct");
variant var = t.create();    // will invoke the previously registered ctor

constructor ctor = t.get_constructor();  // 2nd way with the constructor class
var = ctor.invoke();
std::cout << var.get_type().get_name(); // prints 'MyStruct'

Set/get properties

MyStruct obj;

property prop = type::get(obj).get_property("data");
prop.set_value(obj, 23);

variant var_prop = prop.get_value(obj);
std::cout << var_prop.to_int(); // prints '23'

Invoke Methods:

MyStruct obj;

method meth = type::get(obj).get_method("func");
meth.invoke(obj, 42.0);

variant var = type::get(obj).create();
meth.invoke(var, 42.0);

Features

• reflect constructors, methods, data member or enums
• classes; with single-, multiple- and virtual-inheritance
• constructors (arbitrary argument count)
• methods (virtual, abstract, overloaded, arbitrary argument count)
• arrays (incl. raw-arrays; arbitrary dimension count)
• ability to invoke properties and methods of classes from any arbitrary class level
• no header pollution; the reflection information is created in the cpp file to minimize compile time when modifying the data
• working with custom types without the need of having the declaration of the type available at compile time (useful for plugins)
• possibility to add additional metadata to all reflection objects
• possibility to add default arguments to methods or constructors
• adjust registration behaviour through policies
• minimal macro usage
• no additional 3rd party dependencies are needed
• no rtti required; contains a faster and across shared libraries working replacement
• no exceptions (this feature come with cost and is also regularly disabled on consoles)
• no external compiler or tool needed, only standard ISO C++11

Portability

Tested and compiled with:

• Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 & 2017 (2013 support till version 0.9.6)
• GCC 4.8.1
• Clang 3.7
• MinGW 4.8.2
