Can't get runtime type of polymorphic object from pointer variant

[sinisastevanovic]

Problem:
I'm implementing a serialization system using RTTR and need to serialize polymorphic objects through base class pointers. When I have a variant containing a pointer to a base class (e.g.,ScriptableEntity*), but the actual object is a derived class (e.g., CameraController*), I want to serialize the properties of the actual derived type, not just the base class.

Current Setup:

class ScriptableEntity
{
    // Base class with RTTR registration
    RTTR_ENABLE()
};

registration::class_<ScriptableEntity>("ScriptableEntity")
			.constructor();

class CameraController : public ScriptableEntity
{
public:
    float Speed = 1.0f;  // Property I want to serialize
    RTTR_ENABLE(ScriptableEntity)
};

registration::class_<CameraController>("CameraController")
			.constructor()
			.property("Speed", &CameraController::Speed);

What works (but requires hardcoding):

if(Type.is_pointer() && Value.is_valid())
{
    auto raw = Value.convert<ScriptableEntity*>(); // Hardcoded base type
    auto actualType = rttr::type::get(*raw); // This works!
}

But how do I do this without knowing the base class? I am a bit stuck and can't seem to wrap my head around this. Maybe I am missing something obvious?
