Hi!

Is there any detailed specification added to the name() member of
type_info objects or is it still just implementation dependent?

Why not ensure to have distinct names for different classes?
Could it be possible to have even distinct name()s for nested classes
bearing the same name but different enclosing classes?
What about classes with the same name but in different namespaces?
Or is "9.10 Nested type names" [class.nested.type] even applied to
RTTI names?

Dirk
