[QUOTE="Anton Shepelev, post: 14234358"] Arne Vajhoj: Thanks. Your usage is correct from the standard's viewpoint, but intuitively I understand casting as looking at the same thing from a different view- point. In this way, one can cast pointers and thereby view the addressed memory as containing one or another sturcture. This implies no conversion, no processing, and does not take even a single CPU instruction. Standard authors were forced to use the same term for type conversion because in C# it shares its syn- tax with casting proper, although I should prefer Pascal's approach, i.e.: int i; byte b = 4; i = int(b); I think it would save a lot of confusion.
