        The header <boost/core/type_name.hpp>
        defines the function template boost::core::type_name<T>()
        that returns a string representation of the name of T,
        suitable for logging or diagnostic display purposes.
      
        The result is similar to boost::core::demangle( typeid(T).name() ), but
        it's made more regular by eliminating some of the platform-specific differences
        and extra template parameters of the standard library container types.
      
        For example, type_name<
        std::map<std::string, int>
        >() returns "std::map<std::string,
        int>" and not
      
std::map<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >, int, std::less<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > >, std::allocator< std::pair<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const, int> > >
or
class std::map<class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>, class std::allocator<char> >,int,struct std::less<class std::basic_string< char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> > >,class std::allocator<struct std::pair<class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> > const ,int> > >
The return values aren't guaranteed to be stable across Boost releases.
        Compilation with -fno-rtti is
        supported, but the returned type names aren't guaranteed to be particularly
        useful or unique.
