NAME

       CT - Returns the type information for a variable

SYNOPSIS

       C/C++:

       CT(<type> variable);

DESCRIPTION

       The CT macro returns the runtime type information string of a variable. This is useful in
       constructing the type parameter of the TAU_PROFILE macro. For templates, the type
       information can be constructed using the type of the return and the type of each of the
       arguments (parameters) of the template. The example in the following macro will clarify
       this.

EXAMPLE

       C/C++ :

       TAU_PROFILE("foo::memberfunc()", CT(*this), TAU_DEFAULT);

       TAU_PROFILE, TAU_PROFILE_TIMER(3), TAU_TYPE_STRING(3)
