I'm wondering if there is any effort either at boost or elsewhere to have a library that integrates the C++ libraries with those of Objective-C++ (or Cocoa, since it seems that most treat the two as synonymous) in a nice way - for example, a smart pointer for Objective-C classes (via something like boost::intrusive_ptr), STL iterators for Objective-C containers, C++ function object integration with Objective-C selectors, etc.
I guess it's just out of Boost's scope, at least for one reason: some the code required for the above tasks would be written in ObjC, while Boost is pure c++.
It seems to me the general idea is pretty similar to what Boost.Python does for Python (disclaimer: I don't know Objective-C and barely know Python). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAk3hU2UACgkQ5vihyNWuA4W54gCgiOTPmmt5khZ3okcptib7oQ+O GIAAn1lUGo0hwpdtqEnDJ5gAm/BZNAsT =1UZJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
