11.2 Interpretation

[elmar]

With rule 11.2,

\"Conversions shall not be performed between a pointer to object and any type other than an integral type, another pointer to object type or a pointer to void\"

my understanding of the term

\"another pointer to object type\"

is, that for example code like

int* Source;
long* Target;
Target = (long*)Source;

doesn't violate this rule (but at least violates rule 11.4);
but our misra checker tool's interpretation of this rule is more like

\"another pointer to same object type\"

therefore it emits a misra violation for code structures like the one mentioned above.

To help me out, could you please tell me which interpretation is right?

Thanks in advance,
