You can get the type at runtime by simply casting it...

Thanks.

I guess you need to be careful about which order you do those tests so as not to cast to more general types before testing for specific ones.

I also came up with

```
    if (typeid(event) == typeid(EventTimer)) {
        // do something
    }
```

The reason I was leaning toward the first one is that it could be put in a switch as it's just string compares.

I guess having it cast as part of the check is useful.
