A question regarding cast operator

[laserlight]

But it doesn't prove what you claimed.

It proves that blindly substituting a dynamic_cast for a static_cast just because the conversion function is implemented with dynamic_cast is a wrong thing to do.

Besides, I am merely stating what is the expected practice (refer to my post #34). If you want to do something else, go ahead, but don't blame me if your code ends up getting ridiculed by those who read it.

If you insist, why not show an example program in which invoking a conversion function implicitly or with static_cast does not make sense, whereas using dynamic_cast or reinterpret_cast to invoke that conversion function works and makes sense?
