Can use dynamic_cf_cast here.

Or checked_cf_cast, since we know what the type is supposed to be

Wouldn't that just cause a different crash though?

I’m puzzled about which is correct; if it’s a programming error to have the wrong type, then checked_cf_cast seems with. If it’s not a programming mistake then dynamic_cf_cast is the right thing to use, but asserting is wrong. This patch does ASSERT_NOT_REACHED, so it’s like a third "half bad" case.

Good point, I missed the ASSERT_NOT_REACHED in the original patch.

[Antti Koivisto]

 dynamic_cf_cast does have debug assert so it seems equivalent to my original patch:

    ASSERT_WITH_SECURITY_IMPLICATION(CFGetTypeID(object) == CFTypeTrait<T>::typeID());
    if (CFGetTypeID(object) != CFTypeTrait<T>::typeID())
        return nullptr;

r=me

You could declare the lambda "[&]() -> String" to maintain the existing one-liner return. Not sure if we like being that fancy or not.

[Antti Koivisto]

I had that when there were multiple returns but went back for simplicity.

Don’t get me started, though. dynamic_cf_cast is the wrong name for a function if it asserts, because dynamic_cast and dyanmic_objc_cast don’t!

[Antti Koivisto]

Agreed, I was just confused with the claim that I had invented some third way of doing things.
