| > What advantages does your style have? [big snip] | I can see much logic in your layout (much more perhaps than in the C language!) but sadly, I think the balance of pros and cons is in favour of sticking to a consistent style for a library like Boost code guidelines. (Layout really does matter - I even find when using a colour display - I use MSVC IDE editor or Textpad - changing the keyword colours causes my small brain to take longer to understand the code. IMHO, the diabolical choices for variables names is a significant factor in general users reluctance to get 'into' streambufs). Paul PS I am studying Daryle's most recent work on filtering streambufs, though I find 12 thingys complex - it exceeds the number of digits on both hands :-)) Paul A Bristow, Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal, Cumbria, LA8 8AB UK +44 1539 561830 Mobile +44 7714 33 02 04 Mobile mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
