I have an idea I'd like to post in another update to the case concept.
Great.
The point is that it is just another case. Whatever the sequenced_case is, it's just a model of the case concept. Sure it still has to be documented, but not as a separate concept, but as a model of it.
Also, to me, it's most trivial to just make it an ET tree:
template< class CaseL, class CaseR > struct binary_case { CaseL l; CaseR r;
binary_case(CaseL const& l, CaseR const& r) : l(l), r(r) {}
typedef mpl::joint_view< typename CaseL::labels, typename CaseR::labels > labels;
template< typename Result, class I > Result apply(I); };
Key points:
* apply is part of the concept. In this case, it dispatches to l or r depending on I
* hmmm.... maybe labels should be an mpl set.
No, thank you. mpl set is buggy and slow.
Also, one thing that needs to be nailed down is: What Is I?
Tobias was using it as the index into the list of labels:
mpl::int_<0>, mpl::int_<1>, mpl::int_<2>, ...
In my original interface and as you seem to be using it I is one of:
mpl::at_c
