[gameprogrammer] Re: Cast by return type?

I don't think so.  Are you trying to cast something at run time for a
scripting language type setup?

If so i did a bunch of research on this a couple years back when i was
coding a C++ parser/interpreter and what i found out is that without
RTTI, relaly the only way to do run time type casting in such a
situation is just brute force :/  (if src == int and dest == char then
cast from int to char ... etc)

Maybe you'll find another way but i searched hard for a long time, and
asked people on various IRC channels and never did find another way.
