As we explore <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">convert</span></code> behavior and interface further,
|
|
at first they might appear unduly complex, verbose, etc... nothing like
|
|
<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">atoi</span><span class="special">()</span></code>...
|
|
so famous for all the wrong reasons. :-) It is important to remember that
|
|
a conversion request is only a <span class="emphasis"><em>request</em></span> which may succeed
|
|
but may also fail... which might not be as rare or as exceptional as one
|
|
might hope. <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">convert</span></code> (as well as <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">lexical_cast</span></code>)
|
|
behavior and interfaces reflect that reality.
