Is there a way to return CCNode * by Type (CCSprite) from a CCLayer?

cocos2d-x C++
#1

If I add 100 CCNodes to a CCLayer and some of them are CCSprite is there any functionality like this:

CCLayer->getAllNodesByType();

or

CCLayer->getAllNodesByTypeName(“CCSprite”);

which would return all the CCSprite’s in the CCLayer?

Or some way to return all instances of CCSprite* from a list of CCNode*?

You can do it by dynamic_cast,tag or use data.

WenHai,
Thanks… actually after studying Cocos2d some more I’ve decided I won’t need this method I make.

It was:

CCNode * RBObject::getNodeByID(const char *id);

Where my game object clas, RBObject, has a list of CCNode*

I decided to store important CCNodes, like CCSprite, with another pointer. It’s a little more memory space but faster access time.
