35    @file
36    @ingroup Object Factory Class Identifier
37    @brief Defines several very important macros used to register objects, register classes, and to work with identifiers.
38
39    Every class needs the @c RegisterObject(class) macro in its constructor.
40
41    To register @a class in the class-hierarchy, use the @c RegisterClass(class) macro outside of the class implementation,
42    so it gets executed statically before @c main(). If you don't want @a class to be loadable, but still register it, call
43    @c RegisterUnloadableClass(class).
44
45    Abstract classes are registered with @c RegisterAbstractClass(class). For abstract classes, the inheritance must be
46    defined manually with @c RegisterAbstractClass(class).inheritsFrom(Class(parent)). Multiple parent classes can be defined
47    by chaining the above command.
48
49    Example:
50    @code
51    // register MyClass
52    RegisterClass(MyClass);
53
54    // Constructor:
55    MyClass::MyClass()
56    {
57        // Register the object in the Identifier of MyClass
58        RegisterObject(MyClass);
59    }
60    @endcode
61
62    This file also defines a number of other useful macros, like, for example, @c Class(class) which
63    returns the @ref orxonox::Identifier "Identifier" of @a class, or @c ClassByString("class") which
64    returns the Identifier of a class with name @a "class".
65
66    Example:
67    @code
68    // Assigns the Identifier of MyClass
69    Identifier* identifier = Class(MyClass);
70    @endcode
71    @code
72    // Assigns the Identifier of a class named "MyClass"
73    Identifier* identifier = ClassByString("MyClass");
74    @endcode
