  2. Type punning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_punning

    In C and C++, constructs such as pointer type conversion and union — C++ adds reference type conversion and reinterpret_cast to this list — are provided in order to permit many kinds of type punning, although some kinds are not actually supported by the standard language.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nim_(programming_language)

    Nim is designed to be "efficient, expressive, and elegant", [10] supporting metaprogramming, functional, message passing, [11] procedural, and object-oriented programming styles by providing several features such as compile time code generation, algebraic data types, a foreign function interface (FFI) with C, C++, Objective-C, and JavaScript ...

  4. Downcasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downcasting

    In class-based programming, downcasting, or type refinement, is the act of casting a base or parent class reference, to a more restricted derived class reference. [1] This is only allowable if the object is already an instance of the derived class, and so this conversion is inherently fallible.

    [98] [99] [100] However, the C++11 standard introduces new incompatibilities, such as disallowing assignment of a string literal to a character pointer, which remains valid C. To intermix C and C++ code, any function declaration or definition that is to be called from/used both in C and C++ must be declared with C linkage by placing it within ...

  8. static_cast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_cast

    Although static_cast conversions are checked at compile time to prevent obvious incompatibilities, no run-time type checking is performed that would prevent a cast between incompatible data types, such as pointers. A static_cast from a pointer to a class B to a pointer to a derived class D is ill-formed if B is an inaccessible or ambiguous base ...
