Thank you Stephan for your feedback and the detailed explanations. Yes I was talking about this typical usage. Great if cppu::UnoType<T>::get() is better than getCppuType usage! It will serve 2 goals then: 1) a better usage 2) a fix to cppcheck report "Expression is always false because 'else if' condition matches previous condition at line..." for this type of case (of course, I consider 1) more important but it will kill 2 birds with one stone) Eg in sfx2/source/toolbox/tbxitem.cxx, I could change: else if ( pType == ::getCppuType((const sal_uInt32*)0) ) to else if ( pType == cppu::UnoType<const sal_uInt32>::get() ) Just to be sure, it would then mean that getCppuType could be removed after having replaced all the occurences of getCppuType by cppu::UnoType... or are there some special/specific cases?
