[Boost-users] [multi_array] size_type

It seems clear that since each dimension of a multi_array can have (I presume) extent up to numeric_limits::max(), size_type isn't always large enough to hold the actual size of the multi_array and multi_array::size() may overflow. I have a similar problem with some of my own code, and I'd like to know how the multi_array designers approached this problem--my approach so far is to punt the problem to my users. Thanks. D.
