How to get C++ object name in run time?

Question

Can I get an object\'s name in run time (like getting an object\'s type via RTTI)? I want the object to be able to print its name.

Answer 1

This may be GCC-specific:

#include 
#include 

template 
void foo(T t)
{
    std::cout << typeid(t).name() << std::endl;
}
