No.  Its the form you are suggesting he use.  He wants (logically) a
type conversion, and you are suggesting a hack that happens to work.

You've not worked out the details, presumably because you've never
written the code using the correct types, but the "correct type"
alternative for Morten is much simpler than your hack.  The irony is
that doing it correctly will, in his specific use-case, involve no casts
at all because he should not be using void * in the first place!

I've written exactly the sort of code Morten is writing numerous times.
The result is not a mess of casts.  There are one or two in very
specific cases which have not yet even been illustrated, and the fact
that the casts stand out in those cases is important: they flag a
potentially risky type conversion.  You don't need them at all for
setting the parent pointer of one type of node from the parent pointer
of another.

Can we agree to leave it at that?  You continue to use the
reinterpretation of representations in those cases where it happens to
work, and I'll continue to tell people learning C to use type conversion
when they want to convert between types?

Nether of us will change our minds and I'm happy to let others simply
decide for themselves whose advice to take.  If they are unsure, maybe a
search for previous post by you and by me might help them decide, but
there's clearly no point in continuing this exchange.
