[Boost-users] failed coversion

Is there a way to get the int value by performing division on boost::any variables? #include int main(void) { boost::any a = 10; std::cout << boost::any_cast<int>(a) << std::endl; boost::any s = 2.5; // scaling factor // scale the value a = boost::any_cast<int>(a)/boost::any_cast<float>(s); std::cout << boost::any_cast<int>(a) << std::endl; } This throws the error boost::bad_any_cast: failed conversion using boost::any_cast Thanks CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail communication and any attachments may contain proprietary and privileged information for the use of the designated recipients named above.
