Is this defined by c++0x (I mean current working draft n3126)?: std::ifstrem input(...); // Opened as binary .... int vaue; input.read(reinterpret_cast(&value), sizeof(value)); // Whereinput "has" int And what about reinterpret_cast(&some_pod)? I've found this tread [1] where it said that standard doesn't say whatever it is defined, but it is old. Maybe something has changed. This is my original thread in c.l.c.m [2].
