Re: how to implement a simple class forname?

[..]
well. I think that this is not neccesary because in the end the
methods will be of the same class.

i make this:

FACTORY_H

typedef void (*PtrMethod)(std::vector<std::string>);

class Factory
{
private:
map<const char*, PtrMethod*, ltstr> theMap;

protected:
Factory();

~Factory();

               Object * method1(std::vector<std::string>);
               Object * method2(std::vector<std::string>);

public:
               Object *
getObject(std::string,std::vector<std::string>);
};

FACTORY_CPP

Factory::Factory()
{
      map["method1"] = &method1;
      map["method2"] = &method2;
}

Object * Factory::getObject(string label,vector<string> paramaters)
{
PtrMethod method = theMap[label];
Object * object = (*method)(parameters);
return energia;
}

is it correct? what do you think?
