[isugamedev-devel] template string

[Kevin M. <ke...@vr...>]

is it possible to get a string version of the class used as a template
parameter?

for example if i have

template <class p>
class myclass
{
  // return the string version of p
  static std::string getP() { return ??????; }
};


if I call myclass<float>::getP(), then it should return the string "float"

how to implement getP ???
