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