I wonder what your Validator validates? You seem to be mixing values and
pointers which is not a good idea.
BTW,
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/libs/conversion/lexical_cast.htm#changes
"The previous version of lexical_cast allowed unsafe and meaningless
conversions to pointers. The current version now throws a bad_lexical_cast for
conversions to pointers: lexical_cast<char *>("Goodbye, World") now throws an
exception instead of causing undefined behavior."
