An investigation of why dynamic_cast violates LSP
Signal sender cast in QT
QT implies that the client code will do qobject_cast that is actually dynamic_cast:
awl::ProcessTask<void> MarketModel::coPlaceOrder(OrderPtr p)
{
// Update SQLite databse...
// ...
// QT signals are used in both C++ and QML.
// They works with QObject*, and they are not aware of concrete types.
QObject::connect(p.get(), &OrderModel::statusChanged, this, &MarketModel::onOrderStatusChanged);
}

Investigating cobalt::generator
Standard C++ generator
The code below demonstrates how standard C++23 synchronous generator works:
#include <boost/cobalt.hpp>
#include <iostream>
#include <generator>
namespace cobalt = boost::cobalt;
std::generator<int> numbers()
{
for (int i = 1; i <= 5; ++i)
{
co_yield i;
}
}
