// This example illustrates how to use the raw_reference_cast to convert
// system-specific reference wrappers into native references.
//
// Using iterators in the manner described here is generally discouraged.
// Users should only resort to this technique if there is no viable
// implemention of a given operation in terms of Thrust algorithms.
// For example this particular example is better solved with thrust::copy,
// which is safer and potentially faster.  Only use this approach after all
// safer alternatives have been exhausted.
//
// When a Thrust iterator is referenced (e.g. *iter) the result is not
// a native or "raw" reference like int& or float&.  Instead,
// the result is a type such as thrust::system::cuda::reference<int>
// or thrust::system::tbb::reference<float>, depending on the system
// to which the data belongs.  These reference wrappers are necessary
// to make expressions like *iter1 = *iter2; work correctly when
// iter1 and iter2 refer to data in different memory spaces on
// heterogenous systems.
//
// The raw_reference_cast function essentially strips away the system-specific
// meta-data so it should only be used when the code is guaranteed to be
// executed within an appropriate context.
