| How do you what to use these optional functions from the subclass? Do
| you want to introduce a kind of typeid field in the base class or do you
| want to use RTTI?

I though about giving the type when loading the factory classes from
the plugin...
but to keep it simple: serialize can just return 0 to indicate no
serialization

| Do you think it is possible to implement a placement in shared memory
| with these "functions"?

Why do you quote those beautiful and regular funcions?
And why not just use

~  virtual Link* create()=0;

(we probably will never implement this shared memory stuff)
