I think what you're looking for is

[My articles]I was feeling generous. You know, I'm all for helping folks out of a jam, and even going the extra mile on occasion, but there comes a point when these posters have to grow up and start getting a clue. This next generation of developers is scaring me!

Well, univoters are even worse: IMHO your answer is brilliant because (1) it is actually true. (2) enlights the inconsistency of the question. Univoting people cannot appreciate the above. :)

You don't need a cast to go from
T*toconst T*. And please don't suggest a cast for going fromconst T*toT*without knowing what the OP is actually doing. Teaching new C++ programmers that casts solve everything is really detrimental.--Mike-- Visual C++ MVP :cool: LINKS~!

Indeed, I didn't say this was good or recommended only that it was what he was looking for. In fact I'm no fan of the way const-ness is implemented in C++ at all and I don't take it nearly to the 'religious' extremes that some people do. I'd also prefer it if all type casts had to be explicitly implemented, even for builtin types but that's another issue. :)
