Re: Differentiating between Connectors and Objects



So basically I am stuck with string comparison of all shapes that were
ever created, currently existing and ever to come?

Is it possible to get the type of an object without using a returned
string (object_get_type)? I want to loop over all the selected objects
and count the number of "connection objects" and the number of "other
normal objects" without having to go through this:

(pseudo code)
if (objtype == "Standard - Line" || "UML - Generalization" || "UML -
Dependency" || etc...)

Many of the "connection objects" and "normal objects" inherit from a few top
classes - Line, Arc, Polyline resp. Element.
However, not all do, and some few objects have aspects of both types
(Lifeline, for instance).
