Perhaps distinguishing f and &f?   -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von:Frederick Virchanza Gotham via Std-Proposals <std-proposals_at_[hidden]> Gesendet:Mo 12.05.2025 21:40 Betreff:Re: [std-proposals] comparison between pointers and bool An:std-proposals_at_[hidden]; CC:Frederick Virchanza Gotham <cauldwell.thomas_at_[hidden]>; On Monday, May 12, 2025, Tymi via Std-Proposals <std-proposals_at_[hidden] <mailto:std-proposals_at_[hidden]> > wrote: I think pointer == bool should be permitted For instance  `if (myPointer == false) throw nullptr;`  Tymi.    Sort of half-related to this, I don't think that function pointers should implicitly convert to bool. I chased a bug recently:      assert( wxIsMainThread );  which should have been:      assert( wxIsMainThread() );  I would be in favour of the deprecation of implicit conversion of a function pointer to bool -- although maybe that would break too much code.     -- Std-Proposals mailing list Std-Proposals_at_[hidden] https://lists.isocpp.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/std-proposals
