Re: [Cilib-users] getType () in Vector

[<lab...@gm...>]

Hi,

Yes, getType() was protected all along. My question is why? I need to  
access it. I subclass PositionUpdateStrategy so that I can have mixed types  
in a solution vector. So, I need to check for the type of each element in  
the solution vector to see if it's a bit or a number and call the  
appropriate position udate functions. Does that make sense?
