# Warning C26471

> Don't use `reinterpret_cast`. A cast from `void*` can use `static_cast` (type.1)

## Remarks

Code analysis name: `NO_REINTERPRET_CAST_FROM_VOID_PTR`

## Example

```cpp
void function(void* pValue)
{
    {
        int* pointerToInt = reinterpret_cast<int*>(pValue); // C26471, use static_cast instead
    }
    {
        int* pointerToInt = static_cast<int*>(pValue); // Good
    }
}
```
