True on both counts. On a related note, we already have __rw_compile_assert [see rw/_defs.h], but it doesn't work at global or class scope. I provided an __rw_static_assert for use with type_traits in my original patch, but it didn't work outside of a template. I've got an updated version that will work in all cases. I'm thinking that I should replace the existing __rw_compile_assert with __rw_static_assert, and then define a macro _RWSTD_STATIC_ASSERT(Cond,Mesg) that uses static_assert if it exists, or falls back to ours as needed. >Brad. >
