Hi,[...]
First of all thanks for the great library, which had reduced our development
time by a lot. In boost multi-index, we currently have almost all the indexing concepts
integrated. Hence i am requesting for a new feature called conditional indexes,
where in an index/view inside multi-index will only index a portion of the
entries inside the entire multi-index(Say something that satisfies a functor).
This is in resemblance to the partial indexes in Postgresql. I feel that would provide elegant solutions to lot of issues without forming
round about solutions. For example i have a requirement where in there are
two sets of data with the same search criteria, but different eviction criteria
Say i have two sets of data with same search condition, but one set needs a
MRU(Most Recently Used) list of 100 and the other set requires a MRU of 200.
Say the entry is like this
The general request (composing partial indices to cover the whole sequence) is
interesting and a considered it some years ago, though I never found the time
to implement it (and I'm suspicious it might be a little too "smart" for the general
public).
In any case, I think you can solve your particular problem without that feature
in a convenient manner. Please see the attached example and report whether
it satisfies your needs.
