classes in the project in D.



Assembly asm = Assembly.GetAssembly(typeof(MyClass));

foreach (Type type in asm.GetTypes())
{
}

Yes, `foreach(mod; ModuleInfo) foreach(lc; mod.localClasses)`... but why do you want it? That facility is kinda limited in doing many things with.

I develop a game server. Currently I use a switch :

import protocol.messages.NetworkMessage;

class ProtocolMessageManager

To know if the class is a NetworkMessage, Would be possible to do 
this

if(lc is NetworkMessage)

It doesn't work because lc is TypeInfo_Class

It doesn't work because lc is TypeInfo_Class
In this case: if (lc == typeid(NetworkMessage))

If they're all in the same module, you can also use the compile time reflection to scan the module for classes. That's foreach(memberName; __traits(allMembers, mixin(__MODULE__))) static if(is(__traits(getMember, mixin(__MODULE__), memberName) : NetworkMessage) { if(memberName == runtime_string_of_class_name) { auto msg = new __traits(getMember, mixin(__MODULE__), memberName); // populate msg } } Or something like that. The compile time stuff works well when everything is in a shared module. If not, the runtime stuff has methods `base` and `interfaces` you can scan for your class. So like foreach(c; mod.localClasses if(c.base is typeid(NetworkMessage) { // work with it } Notice it is typeid for runtime, typeof at compile time, and this only gets direct children of NetworkMessage (though you could walk up the parent list to check more).

thank you, the second method works perfectly.

I have one last problem, I start thread and in thread 
Protocol.GetInstance(id) return null while in main thread it 
works.

My class :

class ProtocolMessageManager
{
     private static TypeInfo_Class[uint] m_types;
	
     shared static this()
     {
         foreach(mod; ModuleInfo)
         {
	    foreach(TypeInfo_Class lc; mod.localClasses)
	    {
	        if(lc.base is typeid(NetworkMessage))
		{
		    NetworkMessage c = cast(NetworkMessage)lc.create();
		    ProtocolMessageManager.m_types[c.MessageId] = lc;
		}
	    }
	}
    }

    public static NetworkMessage GetInstance(uint id)
    {
        auto v = (id in ProtocolMessageManager.m_types);
        if (v !is null)
	return 
cast(NetworkMessage)ProtocolMessageManager.m_types[id].create();
        else
	return null;
     }
}

As long as your class has a default constructor, you can use directly Object.factory(id): public static NetworkMessage GetInstance(string id) { return cast(NetworkMessage)(Object.factory(id)); }

It isn't possible. My function when I receive data : private void ReceivedData(char[] buffer) { BinaryReader reader = new BinaryReader(); uint id = reader.ReadUInt(); uint length = reader.ReadInt(); if(length > reader.Available.length) { //waiting for the rest return; } NetworkMessage message = ProtocolMessageManager.GetInstance(id); message.Deserialize(); //..... }
