Hi All,
That article came out of reddit C++ section:
http://pubby8.wordpress.com/2012/10/15/stack-based-template-metaprogramming-...
It looks like TMP made easy (finally !). I am not that sure it is though and was wondering if anybody had any comments on it.
While I'm a fan of point-free programming, I think it the that comparison is not completely fair; if you allow c++11 template using syntax, then the classic MPL metafunction notation becomes: template<typename Predicate, typename List> struct foo: add<square<length<filter<Predicate, List>>>>, int_<5>>{}; Which is almost as good as the concatenative version. The extra <> noise is annoying in this case, but in the general case where the syntax tree is more complex, the classic MPL version would actually be more readable. Now, to make this thread on-topic: is anybody working on a C++11 rewrite of Boost.MPL? -- gpd
