Re: [boost] [any] boost::get style accessors

vicente,

Doesn't any_cast do what you are looking for?  template<typename T> T any_cast(any &);  template<typename T> T any_cast(const any &);  template<typename ValueType> const ValueType * any_cast(const any *);  template<typename ValueType> ValueType * any_cast(any *);

sure thing. If you look closely, any_cast is called from within my code. However, when trying to using boost::any and boost::variant interchangeably it is handy to have a common interface like the one boost::get provides. Christoph
