Is this possible (I think not, but heck, I'll ask anyway)

lets say I have a class TMyClass.

When a user has a variable of TMyClass, can my class know the variables
name. For example
TMyClass AAA;

Is there a way for my constructor, or any class function to "know" that the
instance name is "AAA"? I want o use it for named shared memory.

thanks, Brian
