If they're all in the same module, you can also use the compile
time reflection to scan the module for classes. That's
foreach(memberName; __traits(allMembers, mixin(__MODULE__)))
static if(is(__traits(getMember, mixin(__MODULE__), memberName)
: NetworkMessage) {
if(memberName == runtime_string_of_class_name) {
auto msg = new __traits(getMember, mixin(__MODULE__),
memberName);
// populate msg
}
}
Or something like that. The compile time stuff works well when
everything is in a shared module.
If not, the runtime stuff has methods `base` and `interfaces` you
can scan for your class. So like
foreach(c; mod.localClasses
if(c.base is typeid(NetworkMessage) {
// work with it
}
Notice it is typeid for runtime, typeof at compile time, and this
only gets direct children of NetworkMessage (though you could
walk up the parent list to check more).
