It's not clear why you're using void * in this context, or, for that matter, why you can't do whatever it is you're trying to do with virtual methods.

dynamic_cast is generally used for up-casting, that is casting something stored in the routine as a pointer to a more generic class to a more specific class (which it must actually be). It should very rarely be needed. You could do something like:
<br />
GeneralClass *p = ......<br />
<br />
SpecificClass *sp = dynamic_class<SpecificClass *>p;<br />
<br />
if(sp) { // this actually is an instance of SpecificClass<br />
...<br />
  }<br />


but it's almost always cleaner to do the same thing with virtual methods.
