Sorry I should have been more specific. I am working at the C++ level. I have a swift::MetaType* and want to compare it to something.

Given a swift::MetaType how can I tell if it corresponds to the MetaType of the standard Int type? Is there a way to get a reference to the MetaType from the StdlibModule or TheBuiltinModule?

For now I can convert the MetaType to a string and compare it to "Int.Type" but that is yucky.



Equality comparison works:

(swift) String.self == Int.self
// r2 : Bool = false
(swift) Int.self == Int.self
// r3 : Bool = true
