Re: Getting a C++ object back from a luabind::object?

Perhaps 

return luabind::touserdata<Object*>(o);

instead?  I.e. cast to a pointer rather than an object it self.  Perhaps
underneath, it uses dynamic_cast. 

I haven't used luabind::touserdata before though - I'm just guessing.

Personally I would have gone with 

return luabind::object_cast<Object*>(o);
