+// These are some basic macros for making down-casting safer in Objective C.
+// They are loosely based on the same cast types with similar names in C++.
+// A typical usage would look like this:
+//
+// Bar* b = [[Bar alloc] init];
+// Foo* a = GTM_STATIC_CAST(Foo, b);
+//
+// Note that it's GTM_STATIC_CAST(Foo, b) and not GTM_STATIC_CAST(Foo*, b).
+//
+// GTM_STATIC_CAST runs only in debug mode, and will assert if and only if:
+//   - object is non nil
+//   - [object isKindOfClass:[cls class]] returns nil
+//
+// otherwise it returns object.
+//
+// GTM_DYNAMIC_CAST runs in both debug and release and will return nil if
+//   - object is nil
+//   - [object isKindOfClass:[cls class]] returns nil
+//
+// otherwise it returns object.
+//
+
+// Support functions for dealing with casting.
