Use a static_cast on void* rather than directly use a reinterpret_cast,
which can have nefarious effects on objects.  However, even though following
this guideline is good practice in general, I am not quite sure how relevant
it is when applied to conversions from POD to objects.  Actually, it might
very well be the opposite: isn't this exactly what reinterpret_cast is for?
What we really want *is* to transmit the memory map as a series of bytes,
which, if I am correct, falls into the kind of "low level" hack for which

11 years agom4: generate a basic_symbol constructor for each symbol type

m4: generate a basic_symbol constructor for each symbol type

Recently, there was a slightly vicious bug hidden in the make_ functions:

  parser::symbol_type
  parser::make_TEXT (const ::std::string& v)
  {
    return symbol_type (token::TOK_TEXT, v);
  }

The constructor for symbol_type doesn't take an ::std::string& as
argument, but a constant variant.  However, because there is a variant
constructor which takes an ::std::string&, this caused the implicit
construction of a built variant.  Considering that the variant argument
for the symbol_type constructor was cv-qualified, this temporary variant
was never destroyed.

As a temporary solution, the symbol was built in two stages:

  symbol_type res (token::TOK_TEXT);
  res.value.build< ::std::string&> (v);
  return res;

However, the solution introduced in this patch contributes to letting
the symbols handle themselves, by supplying them with constructors that
take a non-variant value and build the symbol's own variant with that
value.

* data/variant.hh (b4_symbol_constructor_define_): Use the new
constructors rather than building in a temporary symbol.
(b4_basic_symbol_constructor_declare,
b4_basic_symbol_constructor_define): New macros generating the
constructors.
* data/c++.m4 (basic_symbol): Invoke the macros here.
