[Boost-users] Fwd: [OT] [metaprogramming] Importance of order of delarations/definitions.

Hi! Could anyone tell me if there is any example where in e.g. metaprogramming there is a need of strict order of declarations and definitions of templates? Theoretically there should not be a problem, but maybe there are some tricks where order influence on fitting types and/or for lookup of specializations. Generally the question is related to the fact, that GCC force user to put typedefs and declaration/definitions in proper order before any usage of types. And I am looking for the example which points why we can NOT mix all - when the order is important. Regards. -- |\/\/| Seweryn Habdank-Wojewódzki \/\/
