I have to convert signed char and signed char* to unsigned char and unsigned char* respectively.

signed char SignedChar = 'A'; // signed keyword can be skipped!
unsigned char UnsignedChar = (unsigned char)SignedChar;

signed char* pSignedChars = "ABCDEDF"; // signed keyword can be skipped!
unsigned char* pUnsignedChars = (unsigned char*)pSignedChars;

i cant afford to use the type cast. please suggest me something else

char C = '-';
unsigned char U = C;

char *c = new char;
*c = 'a';
unsigned char *u = new unsigned char;
*u = *c;

You're right, there is no need to cast stuff here as they basically are just different representation of the same data.

For the second case (pointers), you'll get an error because type pointed are unrelated.
