Re: [chuck-users] Intraspection - an example of what I'm attempting

Honestly, I've run into this a lot in the past and I'm familiar with this frustration.  I even hacked my own version of chuck in which each object responded to a .typeOf(); message that returned a string representation (I know, it's ugly) of it's class name.  I used this to make do smart casting, which I admit is still a huge compromise.  I still think that each class name (reserved word) should be able to represent itself.  Something to the tune of: if( myUgen.typeOf() == SinOsc ) {    // seems reasonable, right?     myUgen $ SinOsc => SinOsc s; }

I don't find that ugly, it's a cool hack. What if the method were called className()? I vote for adding such to the git repo and push to get it added upstream. michael
