|After Reflections landed in gcc-trunk I followed up on my [https://www.qt.io/blog/c26-reflection-qrangemodel hackathon project] to see how much we can implement what moc does using Reflections. This was a [https://git.qt.io/vohilshe/cpp26metaobject promising exercise], even though a few things were not quite possible yet.
Let's have a look at what - based on that experiment - the code for a meta-object enabled type in Qt could look like.
