53 /**
54  * UClassID is used to identify classes without using the compiler's RTTI.
55  * This was used before C++ compilers consistently supported RTTI.
56  * ICU 4.6 requires compiler RTTI to be turned on.
57  *
58  * Each class hierarchy which needs
59  * to implement polymorphic clone() or operator==() defines two methods,
60  * described in detail below.  UClassID values can be compared using
61  * operator==(). Nothing else should be done with them.
62  *
63  * \par
64  * In class hierarchies that implement "poor man's RTTI",
65  * each concrete subclass implements getDynamicClassID() in the same way:
66  *
67  * \code
68  *      class Derived {
69  *      public:
70  *          virtual UClassID getDynamicClassID() const
71  *            { return Derived::getStaticClassID(); }
72  *      }
73  * \endcode
74  *
75  * Each concrete class implements getStaticClassID() as well, which allows
76  * clients to test for a specific type.
77  *
78  * \code
79  *      class Derived {
80  *      public:
81  *          static UClassID U_EXPORT2 getStaticClassID();
82  *      private:
83  *          static char fgClassID;
84  *      }
85  *
86  *      // In Derived.cpp:
87  *      UClassID Derived::getStaticClassID()
88  *        { return (UClassID)&Derived::fgClassID; }
89  *      char Derived::fgClassID = 0; // Value is irrelevant
