I have a bunch of code that uses loki. I am trying to convert it to use boost instead. However, I am having a very difficult time finding concepts in boost to replace those in loki. I have looked for something to help in this, but I have not had much success. I have read through the MP documentation, and I am even more confused.
For example, I use Loki::Int2Type, and according to a loose interpretation of section 2.3.6, mpl::int_c<> may be what I am looking for (at least for this one specific case). However, when I went to look at the source to make sure it does what I think it does, I could not find it anywhere. I have 1.31.0, extracted from the tar.gz file, and did a complete find, but the only place I can find reference to it is in .sgml files.
Anyone know what this became, or how to correct my brain-dedness?

I think the problem is that much Boost library code is preprocessor-generated.
Maybe doing // foo.cpp #include "boost/mpl/int.hpp" and then trying gcc -E foo.cpp will help you find the code you seek. (I haven't actually tried.)
There are pre-generated headers in boost/mpl/aux_/preprocessed/... Those are the ones that actually get used. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
