CCoeControl Control is a base class from which all other controls are derived.
we can use ( i would not suggest) dynamic_cast to determine that a particular pointer or reference is class derived from it.

but skd says that the more sophisticated C++ dynamic_cast operator should not be used because EPOC does not enable or support Run Time Type Information (RTTI).
