That, and to make it MUCH easier to create adapted iterators, and to make it possible to add arbitrary constructors to iterators, and to clean up the whole "extra state goes in the policies" fiasco, and... Basically, as good and useful as the original iterator adaptors design was, we eventually realized we could do WAY better. > Anyway, I won't take any further action until all that has settled > down. That's not hugely in flux anymore. It should be fairly safe to work with, having confidence that you won't have to completely throw out what you've done later. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
