This question has probably been asked a million time, but here it comes
again. I want to learn the difference between the three type cast operators:
static_cast, reinterpret_cast, dynamic_cast. A good way to do this is by
example. So I will give an example and please tell me what you think:
I have a base
class A
with a virtual destructor, and a
class B
that is it inherits publicly from A and defines som extra stuff.

Hello,
I saw on a couple of recent posts people saying that casting the return
value of malloc is bad, like:
d=(double *) malloc(50*sizeof(double));
why is this bad? I had always thought (perhaps mistakenly) that the
purpose of a void pointer was to cast into a legitimate date type. Is
this wrong? Why, and what is considered to be correct form?

Hi,
I have read in one of old posting that don't cast of pointer which
is returned by the malloc. I would like to know the reason.
Thanks in advance,

Hi everyone,
A basic one here, I think. I haven't found the pattern yet, but
sometimes when I cast a variable to another type using the "C" style cast
operator the compiler refuses to play along. It says it's an invalid cast.
However, if I use the Convert.ToInt32() method (for example) things will
work. At least, that's how it appears to me.
Could someone explain when to use old-style parenthesized casts vs. the
Convert() methods?

Casting arrays that works on watch and command window but not in code.
My application is casting arrays in a way it should work. To test if I
was doing something invalid, I wrote a test code that has similar
structure of the classes in my application. The test worked fine, the
casting I want to do must work. I compared the structure of the test
with the application to ensure they where similar (inheriting twice,
base class implements...

Hi guys,
Sorry for this stupid question, but I don't know why it isn't working.
Here is my (example) code:
namespace Test {
class A {
public string Label1;

Hi ,
I was going through peter van der linden's book Expert C programming,
in this book there is a section named "How and why to cast"
the author then says as follows
(float) 3 - it's a type conversion and the actual bits change.
if you say (float) 3.0 it is a type disambiguation,and the compiler
can plant the correct bits in the first place.some people say that

Hi everyone,
I was experimenting with static_cast and reinterpret cast

Hi,
I have often wondered if casting the return value of malloc() (or
friends) actually helps anything, recent threads here suggest that it
does not .. so I hope to find out.
For instance :
char *tmp = NULL;

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Dear forum friends,
With the development of smart home technology, a variety of wireless communication protocols have appeared on the market, such as Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc. Each protocol has its own unique characteristics and advantages, but as a user who is planning to build a smart home system, I am a bit confused by the choice of these technologies. I'm particularly interested in Zigbee because I've heard it does some...
