I'm using Fusion to create a list of Range objects. Here is a simple function: using namespace boost::fusion; template <typename STLCollection, typename FusB, typename FusE> void process_append (STLCollection& collection, const FusB& begin, const FusE& end) { std::cout << "Yip! "; typename result_of::deref<FusB>::type r= deref(begin); /*23*/ collection.insert (collection.end(), boost::begin(r), boost::end(r)); typename result_of::next<FusB>::type successor= next(begin); /*25*/ if (successor != end) process_append (collection, successor, end); std::cout << "Yap! "; } I expect it to print Yip! n times and then Yap! n times. What I get is a compiler error concerning the boost::begin(r) or boost::end(r), that I'm calling it on a fusion::void_ rather than a Range. As you see, I have moved the end-of-recusion test from its normal position at the top of the function (test when called, and return immediately rather than doing the normal body) to the point of the recursive call (don't call with the end sentinel). However, this appears to still trigger the function expansion, since the trail of errors seems to go from the point marked 23 as the original (inner-most) error, to several stops at point 25, to the caller, and so on back out. So it expands several times and then errors, so I think it is objecting to the "end" case. Now if simply mentioning the function, not calling it, is enough to make it expand the function, then more levels of indirection isn't going to help. What is the proper way to do this? Is there, somewhere, a proper example of using Fusion to iterate from begin to end of a Fusion collection? Presumably this must be done using recursion because the type of "next(I)" is not necessarily the same as the type of "I". If some other kind of overloading or partial specialization is the trick, I would expect that the "end" type, or the dereference of the "end" type, would be documented as something I could easily use for that. Please help.
