GetGeneratedTypeName()

template<typename T >

const TCHAR * GetGeneratedTypeName ( )

inline

Returns a pointer to a static string representing the name of the type, e.g.:

const TCHAR* FStringName = GetGeneratedTypeName<FString>() // "FString"

Caveats:

• The strings are compiler-dependent and thus non-portable, and so shouldn't be saved or relied upon as a form of identity, e.g. the example above returns "class FString" on MSVC.
• Default template parameters are also handled differently by different compilers, sometimes ignored, sometimes not.
• Only the concrete type is known to the compiler, aliases are ignored, e.g. GetGeneratedTypeName<TCHAR>() typically returns "wchar_t".
