/** \brief A cast that throws bad_cast for pointer cast failures, as well as
* for reference casts.
*
* \ingroup group__library__conversion
*
* Assume the following class hierarchy, and variables:
\code
class Parent
{
public:
virtual ~Parent();
};
class A
: public Parent
{
public:
~A();
};
class B
: public Parent
{
public:
~B();
};
. . .
A a;
B b;
\endcode
*
* The following code segments illustrate the similarities and differences
* between dynamic_cast and ptr_cast:
*
* (i) dynamic cast of reference that succeeds
\code
A &ra1 = dynamic_cast<A&>(a);
A &ra2 = stlsoft::ptr_cast<A&>(a);
assert(&ra1 == &ra2);
\endcode
*
* (ii) dynamic cast of pointer that succeeds
\code
A *pa = dynamic_cast<A*>(&a);
assert(NULL != pa);
assert(stlsoft::ptr_cast<A*>(&a) == pa);
\endcode
*
* (iii) dynamic cast of reference that fails
\code
bool bCastFailed1 = false;
try
{
B &b1 = dynamic_cast<B&>(a);
. . . // Will never get here
}
catch(std::bad_cast &)
{
bCastFailed1 = true;
}
assert(bCastFailed1);
bool bCastFailed2 = false;
try
{
B &rb = stlsoft::ptr_cast<B&>(a);
. . . // Will never get here
}
catch(std::bad_cast &)
{
bCastFailed2 = true;
}
assert(bCastFailed2);
\endcode
*
* (iv) dynamic cast of pointer that fails
\code
assert(NULL == dynamic_cast<B*>(&a));
bool bCastFailed = false;
try
{
B &rb = stlsoft::ptr_cast<B&>(&a);
. . . // Will never get here
}
catch(std::bad_cast &)
{
bCastFailed = true;
}
assert(bCastFailed);
\endcode
*
* \note This is described in detail in chapter 19 of
* <a href = "http://www.imperfectcplusplus.com/">Imperfect C++</a>.
