You're not the first to want a REVERSE_FOREACH, but this is the first legitimate argument I've heard for it. Could you go to http://svn.boost.org/trac and open a new ticket there. Make the ticket type "feature request" and the component "foreach". I'll look into it when I have a chance.
Thanks very much for your interest, Eric. I've set up a ticket on the issue which you can view at
Better late than never -- I just committed a BOOST_REVERSE_FOREACH to trunk.
[Apologies if a similar message has already posted] Cool! Your work is much appreciated. For my particular use I am layering the for_each header over the top of Boost 1.33.1 (I know, I know, I'm way behind the times). It may be of use for some users to know the latest SVN version, despite undergoing several revisions since the old review version that was deliberately intended to work with 1.33.1, nearly works out-the-box with that old release. I've not tested the more sophisticated features, but to get basic functionality you just need to change "range_mutable_iterator" to "range_iterator" on line 316. Pete
