To quote the standard, C.1.2 Clause 3:
Change: Converting void* to a pointer-to-object type requires casting
char a[10];
void *b=a;
void foo() {
char *c=b;
}
ISO C will accept this usage of pointer to void being assigned to a pointer
to object type. C++ will not.
Rationale: C++ tries harder than C to enforce compile-time type
safety.
