I can't tell without looking at the rest of your code, but I would guess that Default has not been assigned a float. What happens if you print out the Default.type().name() ?

Will you please help me out? the program crashes with bad cast exception. float Value = boost::any_cast(Default); where Default is boost::any type. Thank you in advance I got problem in casting boost::any to float.

I'm sure it's handy in some cases, but it still make me itch. I always have horrible flashbacks to the COM VARIANT type when I see that thing.
