I am looking for a way to obtain the class hierarchy of a program in

ClassParent, so a list of Class types would be sufficient, I think. I
can't find however a routine in the RTL to obtain such a list.

There is no such routine in the RTL, to my knowledge.

Can I add it ? I guess a low-level pointer to a list of VMT's would be
sufficient to implement it ?

Problem is: it breaks smartlinking.

Yes, I understand that. I looked at the assembly generated for a simple test program and there are separate al_globals entries for each vmt and separate al_rtti entries for the vmt rtti. I asssume the very reason for the separate entries is smart linking.

Hm, I guess I can look at the data section of the executable but it would be highly dependant of the executable binary format.

Is it possible to produce a separate data section/entry that refers to all al_globals and/or all al_rtti entries without breaking smart-linking ?

Why? It's just walking the ParentClass hierarchy of a given class; which is
what RTTI does anyway ?

And the other way round (from a class to each subclass).
