[gme-users] instance's type

[Vijdan KIZILAY]

Hi,
I am trying to get  the type name of an instance. But how is it possible? In
user manual, part: "Type inheritance in BON2" (page 109) it says:


"After a simple cast the user may obtain the type of the instance or the
subtypes of the type. "

but I can not get the Type name of aan instance as a string  or another
printable format(in my exampe it is "Ship").

For example My Type is Ship and its instance is RegisteredShipObject. When I
reach the RegisteredShipObject in the code below,
I can not get the type name which is Ship in my code?

getType returns ok but how can I get the name of the type? (how can I
achieve this casting operation)
I can not find a function like oo->getType()->getName()?

Here is my code:

for
( std::set<BON::Reference>::iterator iter = referenceSet.begin(); iter !=
referenceSet.end(); iter++ )
{
if( (*iter)->getObjectMeta().displayedName() == "OCReference" )
{
BON::FCO mscModel = (*iter)->getReferred();
BON::TypeInhObject oo = mscModel->getTypeInhObject();
if (  oo ->getType() )
{
 //I want to get name of type --- here Ship --
}
}
}
