Ups...I was wrong. The above code compiles fine. So the size()/end() functions from array traits can be made. The problem is this: template< typename C > struct array_traits; template< typename C, std::size_t N > struct array_traits< T[sz] >; // won't work regards Thorsten _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
