Hello all, small question: there seems no xor operator in c++ but there is also no Boost xor functor (like the std::logical_and)? Scenario: I have 2 data members used in variant like way: only 1 may be valid. Both valid or both invalid is incorrect.

Huh? The xor operator is ^.

I don't understand the connection. In Christ, Steven Watanabe

Isn't that the bitwise exclusive xor operator? Reading now my mail back I forget to specify the 'logical xor' term.

Can't you use !!A != !!B? (or !!A ^ !!B) -- Murilo Adriano Vasconcelos http://murilo.wordpress.com

ah quite brilliant! I was thinking about the (a ? !b : b). Still a logical_xor does also has a documentation value.

operator^ works fine for booleans, and I guess that's what you want to apply logical_xor to. bool a, b; bool c = a ^ b; // Fine. Roman Perepelitsa.
