I stumbled upon the concept of true typedef, or strong typedef in opposition to usual typedef which are weak. [snip] I was wondering if this is already implemented in some corner of Boost, or as a detail implementation.
There's a detail impl in serialization, I believe. Search for BOOST_STRONG_TYPEDEF
there is more interesting stuff in Boost.Seriailzation that could be part of boost in general. - especially seriailzation::singleton, because it requires linking to the serialization library even though you don't serialize anything. - ptr_serialization_support in http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_41_0/boost/serialization/export.hpp which forces instantiation of a function. this apparently cannot be implemented platform independently, so Boost.Config might be the right library for it? - smart_cast
