A few questions about subj.

First of all, I declared three different classes, but they seem to share one common classinfo (I printf'ed the pointer).

Why isn't ClassInfo.name there, not even pointing to
a valid memory location ("access violation").

And finally, what is ClassInfo.init? I saw it being used
in OutOfMemory class, but didn't get the idea... is it
a pointer to the constructor, or a pointer to static
members of the class, or what?

Also, it would be really cool to add pointer to constructor
to ClassInfo if it's not already there, and form some
globally accessible list of ClassInfo's - array, or
linked list, or whatever else. This could be used to
implement object serialization, for example.

I'll check into the bugs. -Walter
