[boost] [polymorphic_downcast]

Hi, is there any reason why we cannot say Base& get_ref(); Derived& boost::polymorphic_downcast<Derived&>( get_ref() ); ? It works with pointers, shouldn't we overload for references? -Thorsten -- Thorsten Ottosen ---------------------------- www.dezide.com http://www.cs.aau.dk/index2.php?content=Research/mi www.boost.org www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/
