I am in a gaming build environment that has traditionally turned of rtti because of space and portability issues.
But, I would like to use the very useful boost::function. On MSVC boost::function works, but fails on g++ for the ps3. I have read on the lists that it is possible to implement a rtti-less version, and that this is even wanted in the future.
See: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/192378
And http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/191945
I know of a lot of people that would like this dependency on rtti removed.
My question to the list is: did anyone have a try at an implementation and could share it ? I have toyed with boost::function and sp_typeinfo.hpp and tried to replace occurrences of type_info in function_base.hpp, but I don't have enough understanding to finish the work and my early attempts have failed.
Thank you,
David.
