Hello,
At some time Eric expressed that all the expression template based libraries of boost (notably Phoenix, Spirit) has to be re-written using proto. I think that this target is kind of achieved by now.
Can something be done along the similar lines for re-writing the top- notch libraries like POOMA and Blitz++ as a complete examples of proto applications?
Does anyone has idea about how huge this undertaking can be?
Rewriting POOMA is a huge task - and I don't know whether proto has support for parallel programming using MPI or for multithreading yet. Our main reasons for using POOMA in some projects was the automatic parallelization. I'd seya you'll need a team of 3-4 people working on it for a year at least. Matthias
