converting two types according to their typeid

Hello,

boost::is_convertible<From, To> does it for types.
I need it for typeid's.
Meaning, is there a way to know if two types are convertible according to their typeid.

struct B {
B(const A& a) {}
};

struct A {};

boost::is_convertible<A,b>::value --> will be true.

i need something like this:

A a;
B b;

Is_Convertible(typeid(a),typeid(b));

Thanks

typeid is a global function. I guess you mean "... according to the type_info returned by typeid". In that case, no type_info does not contain information like that. See http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/s...nfo/type_info/.
