Any thoughts or pointers on the best way to support rendering and parsing of enumerated constants? Some only need to be printed, as for debug messages. Others need to be parsed as well, such as from a configuration file.
I'm thinking the solution should provide for uniform access to the conversion including existing uses such as feeding an enumeration constant to Boost.Format and having it automatically render as the string.
There's Boost.Enums (not part of Boost yet) developed by Vicente, but I'm not sure the status. See: http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/enums/libs/enums/doc/html/index.html#...
