...ibe to (you can use AsObservable() on your subject to make sure nobody can cast to a Subject and mess things up). You could also achieve this with a .NET event and use FromEventPattern, but if I'm only going to turn the event into an IObservable anyway, I don't see the benefit of having an event i...

.... We can get some efficiency and simplicity with the satisfaction that no casts will fail or that methods might be missing upon invocation. Erasing encourages reasoning. share | improve this answer...

.../ void *current_location; /* This is the same as current_location, but cast to a * memory_control_block */ struct mem_control_block *current_location_mcb; /* This is the memory location we will return. It will * be set to 0 until we find something suitable */ void *memory_loca...

...se method (from string to T), or an efficient equivalent of boost::lexical_cast in C# to understand the problem) RAII remains unmatched (GC still can leak (yes, I had to handle that problem) and will only handle memory. Even C#'s using is not as easy and powerful because writing a correct Dispose im...

...o override the static checker. For most languages, these take the form of casting, though some (like C# and Haskell) have entire modes which are marked as "unsafe". Subjectively, I like static typing. Implemented properly (hint: not Java), a static type system can be a huge help in weeding out er...

... (e.g: a non-type template parameter N) Type-dependent expressions (e.g: a cast to a type template parameter (T)0) Most of the rules are intuitive and are built up recursively: For example, a type constructed as T[N] is a dependent type if N is a value-dependent expression or T is a dependent type...

..., if a POD-class A's first member is of type T, you can safely reinterpret_cast from A* to T* and get the pointer to the first member and vice versa. The list goes on and on… Conclusion It is important to understand what exactly a POD is because many language features, as you see, behave diffe...
