How to convert type_info to a 'Class' type of objective-c

Say I have a C++ class:

class CppClass {
    // class implementation.
}

And in Objective-C++ code I have a method:

+(id)someMethod:(Class)aClass;

Is there any way to convert type_info to Class?

Solution

  • No. Class is a type that can be used to hold a pointer to an Objective-C "class object", an Objective-C object that represents an Objective-C class at runtime. C++ classes are not Objective-C classes, and don't have an Objective-C "class object".
