What is dynamic casting?

C++ gives us the flexibility to check the type of object pointer at runtime by the keyword dynamic_cast.

Example:

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
  base * b;
  myclass m, *mp;
  b = &m;
  if(mp = dynamic_cast<myclass *>(b))
  {
    cout << " b is type of myclass";
  }
  else
  {
    cout << " b is not a type of myclass";
  }
}
