I think this makes sense. The disadvantage is the overhead of optional just to do "extract"ion. I understand from the other posts that implementing optional in terms of variant as is an overkill? If so, at least effort must be put into making both libraries reuse as much common parts as possible. I'm sure there are lots of commonality, right? -- Joel de Guzman [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.boost-consulting.com _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
