Re: [boost] How safer to use boos::shared_from_this() from derived class inherited from based class?

The shared_ptr<Derived> that is returned by the static_pointer_cast shares the same reference count as the original shared_ptr<Base>, so it shouldn't matter.

Good point, I missed out that part. That function cannot be virtual but I guess it does no matter, that should be safer to use. Thanks Peter. - jupiter
