std::list forest; of course you'll have to allocate (new) them before putting their pointers in the list, but that's not a huge issue.

Not at all, so long as I use explicit temopries when calling new as the docs say. I've found I also have to change "iter->grow();" to "(*iter)->grow();", but I think i've found a mechanism to solve this. I create a wrapper around the iterator whose operator* and operator-> returns a value_type& (i.e., *iter). The modified code is attached, any suggestions? -- Matthew Peltzer -- goochrules@gmail.com
