static_cast(p) where p is void* works perfectly fine. It is always valid to cast a void* to any other type and that's what static_cast<> does -- performs the cast when it is allowed by the rules of the language.

Might it be C that allows arbitrary casts, but only guarantees proper semantics if the type is the correct one? My C-fu is weak, and I know they differ in what they allow. -- Lars Viklund | zao@acc.umu.se
