So I have some problems with casting...
When casting
I always get a "**void is not a class**" error.
Code:
PickUp* pu = dynamic_cast<PickUp*>(actor.obj); // <-- ERROR!!
Interesting is that I found some older projects from other
people that used casting in a slightly different way, but for the same purpose.
So it likely worked at some time. But when building these now,
the same error pops up.
Like in this example:
Code:
if (Physics.ray(pos, dir * 10, &selector))
{
if(Kb.b(KB_L))
{
if (magicLamp * lamp = CAST(magicLamp, selector.obj)) // <--- ERROR!
{
lamp.selected = true;
}
}
Same error. Any idea what changed/went wrong?
As this looks to me like the very standart/typical way of downcasting, I have no idea
why this doesn't work as intended.
Same here, from Tottels TowerDefense Demo:
Code:
if(Physics.ray(start, end-start, &phys_hit, IndexToFlag(AG_TURRET))) // if ray hit the terrain
{
// Player left-clicked on the turret
if(Turret* turret = CAST(Turret, phys_hit.obj)) // <-- ERROR!!
{
ResetAllMaterials(); // First, set all turrets unselected
turret->SetSelected(true);
m_TurretGUI->SetDraw(true);
m_TurretGUI->SetTurret(turret);
}
and in quite a few more as well.. Kinda odd...
EDIT:
So reinterpret_cast does work...
Well, ok then...

[SOLVED] Casting -> void is not a class error...
