source: code/branches/presentation3/src/libraries/core/CoreIncludes.h @ 6912

Last change on this file since 6912 was 6423, checked in by rgrieder, 15 years ago

Fixed bug that caused derived classes to list the base class's config values as well.
Introduced a new "ClassByObjecType" function that accepts a 'this' pointer and returns the correct identifier (not this→getIdentifier()!).

31    @brief Definition of macros for Identifiers
32
33    Every class needs the RegisterObject(class) macro in its constructor. If the class is an interface
34    or the BaseObject itself, it needs the macro RegisterRootObject(class) instead.
35
36    To allow the object being created through the factory, use the CreateFactory(class) macro outside
37    the of the class implementation, so it gets executed before main().
