P.S. One can implement that also in C++ - see all the insanities TrollTech had to go into to do it in Qt. They use strings to identify methods during compile time, create class vs. method tables during link time and during run-time perform look-up on the table to identify the method's entry point.
What you're essentially talking about is reflection. Reflection is slow as balls. C++ is not slow as balls. Get it?
