#### Casts

Lazy casts...

    #include <boost/phoenix/object/static_cast.hpp>
    #include <boost/phoenix/object/dynamic_cast.hpp>
    #include <boost/phoenix/object/const_cast.hpp>
    #include <boost/phoenix/object/reinterpret_cast.hpp>

The set of lazy C++ cast template functions provide a way of lazily casting an object of a certain type to another type. The syntax resembles the well known C++ casts. Take note however that the lazy versions have a trailing underscore.

    static_cast_<T>(lambda_expression)
    dynamic_cast_<T>(lambda_expression)
    const_cast_<T>(lambda_expression)
    reinterpret_cast_<T>(lambda_expression)

Example:

    static_cast_<Base*>(&arg1)

Static-casts the address of `arg1` to a `Base*`.
