David, would you accept a template class wrapping a non-null pointer, perhaps non_null_ptr<T>? Conversion to a raw pointer would be implicit, but construction from a raw pointer would be explicit. The person constructing such a pointer is responsible for ensuring that it is not null. The person who uses such a pointer trusts that it is not.
That would retain the pointers that you value and add the nullness information that I value. https://codereview.appspot.com/341150043/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
