Boost Conversion Library

Russian    Home    Map    STL    BOOST C++

The Conversion Library improves program safety and clarity by performing otherwise messy conversions.  It includes cast-style function templates designed to complement the C++ Standard's built-in casts.

To reduce coupling, particularly to standard library IOStreams, the Boost Conversion Library is supplied by several headers:

• The boost/cast header provides polymorphic_cast<> and polymorphic_downcast<> to perform safe casting between polymorphic types, and numeric_cast<> to perform safe casting between numeric types.
  
• The boost/lexical_cast header provides lexical_cast<> general literal text conversions, such as an int represented as a string, or vice-versa.
