It is - see http://eel.is/c++draft/expr.static.cast#13 and http://eel.is/c++draft/expr.addThe cast will leave the pointer value unchanged. That means, when the addition is done, it is still pointing to the int object, which will result in a pointer past the end. Modifying it will result in UB.Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

I would like to get a sense of if this would be something that you all would like to see. Please provide any feedback or suggestions 😊> > The first case is not UB:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16260033/reinterpret-cast-between-char-and-stduint8-t-safe
