Is there a way to generate a list of value pairs using ref_list_of or cref_list_of. Maybe such a list could be assigned to a map. Something like:

ref_list_of<size, std::pair<std::string, std::string>>("foo", "bar")("foo1", "bar1")...;

or

std::map<string, string> names = ref_list_of<size, std::pair<std::string, std::string>>("foo", "bar")("foo1", "bar1")...;

I would have thought e.g. cref_list_of to work fine with std::pair<const char*,const char*>. I assume you want to use this because of preformance issues. The [c]ref_list_of functions needs to get a compile-time size so it can create an array for the storage. regards -Thorsten
