typeid(type-id)

typeid(expression)

The typeid operator allows the type of an object to be determined at run-time.

The result of a typeid expression is a const type_info&. The value is a reference to a type_info object that represents either the type-id or the type of the expression, depending on which form of typeid is used. See type_info Class for more information.
