| // type Foo to type SubclassOfFoo), static_cast<> isn't safe, because |
| // how do you know the pointer is really of type SubclassOfFoo? It |
| // could be a bare Foo, or of type DifferentSubclassOfFoo. Thus, |
| // when you downcast, you should use this macro. In debug mode, we |
| // use dynamic_cast<> to double-check the downcast is legal (we die |
| // if it's not). In normal mode, we do the efficient static_cast<> |
| // instead. Thus, it's important to test in debug mode to make sure |
| // the cast is legal! |
| // This is the only place in the code we should use dynamic_cast<>. |
| // In particular, you SHOULDN'T be using dynamic_cast<> in order to |
| // do RTTI (eg code like this: |
| // if (dynamic_cast<Subclass1>(foo)) HandleASubclass1Object(foo); |
| // if (dynamic_cast<Subclass2>(foo)) HandleASubclass2Object(foo); |
