TAU_TYPE_STRING(3)					      TAU Instrumentation API						TAU_TYPE_STRING(3)

NAME
       TAU_TYPE_STRING - Creates a type string

SYNOPSIS
       C++:

       TAU_TYPE_STRING(string &variable, string &type_string);

DESCRIPTION
       This macro assigns the string constructed in type_string to the variable. The + operator and the CT macro can be used to construct the type
       string of an object. This is useful in identifying templates uniquely, as shown below.

EXAMPLE
       C++ :

       template<class PLayout>
       ostream& operator<<(ostream& out, const ParticleBase<PLayout>& P) {
	 TAU_TYPE_STRING(taustr, "ostream (ostream, " + CT(P) + " )");
	 TAU_PROFILE("operator<<()"taustr, TAU_PARTICLE | TAU_IO);
	 ...
       }

       When PLayout is instantiated with " UniformCartesian<3U, double> ",this generates the unique template name:

       operator<<() ostream const
       ParticleBase<UniformCartesian<3U, double> > )

       The following example illustrates the usage of the CT macro to extract the name of the class associated with the given object using
       CT(*this);

       template<class PLayout>
       unsigned ParticleBase<PLayout7>::GetMessage(Message& msg, int node) {
	 TAU_TYPE_STRING(taustr, CT(*this) + "unsigned (Message, int)");
	 TAU_PROFILE("ParticleBase::GetMessage()", taustr, TAU_PARTICLE);
	 ...
       }

       When PLayout is instantiated with " UniformCartesian<3U, double> ",this generates the unique template name:

       ParticleBase::GetMessage() ParticleBase<UniformCartesian<3U,
       double> > unsigned (Message, int)
