37  *         constructor is still called, and if the constructor references member
38  *         data, (which it typically does), the result is a segmentation violation.

50 /**
51  * UClassID is used to identify classes without using the compiler's RTTI.
52  * This was used before C++ compilers consistently supported RTTI.
53  * ICU 4.6 requires compiler RTTI to be turned on.
54  *
55  * Each class hierarchy which needs
56  * to implement polymorphic clone() or operator==() defines two methods,
57  * described in detail below.  UClassID values can be compared using
58  * operator==(). Nothing else should be done with them.
59  *
60  * \par
61  * In class hierarchies that implement "poor man's RTTI",
62  * each concrete subclass implements getDynamicClassID() in the same way:
63  *
64  * \code
65  *      class Derived {
66  *      public:
67  *          virtual UClassID getDynamicClassID() const
68  *            { return Derived::getStaticClassID(); }
69  *      }
70  * \endcode
71  *
72  * Each concrete class implements getStaticClassID() as well, which allows
73  * clients to test for a specific type.
74  *
75  * \code
76  *      class Derived {
77  *      public:
78  *          static UClassID U_EXPORT2 getStaticClassID();
79  *      private:
80  *          static char fgClassID;
81  *      }
82  *
83  *      // In Derived.cpp:
84  *      UClassID Derived::getStaticClassID()
85  *        { return (UClassID)&Derived::fgClassID; }
86  *      char Derived::fgClassID = 0; // Value is irrelevant
