Re: [Boost-users] Making boost::any play nice in function overloads

When I tried to call doSomething with a string literal argument (i.e. table.doSomething("Hello")), it of course failed since boost:any can't be initialized with an array. Okay - no problem. Another overload should do the trick, right?

So I added an overload like this:

------------------------------------------------------------------------ class Table { public: void doSomething(const boost::any& input);

// Supposed to take a const char*, convert it to a string, and // pass off to boost::any case. void doSomething(const std::string& input);

How about template<std::size_t N> void doSomething(const char (&input)[N]);
