are we discussing here a generic interface from type-to-type or one that uses an intermediary stream to make the conversion?
I've been considering it the former. Why does using a stream to make the conversion affect that?
Same here. And lexical_cast may be reimplemented with optimized type-to-type specializations. Nothing in the name requires it to be type-to-stream-to-type.
I fully agree with type-to-type conversions. Regards, Barend
