Hi, Neil Groves and Boosters.
OvenToBoost is a project that intend to add some features of Oven Range Library into Boost.Range.
First, congrats on getting things done! I'm really looking forward to see oven-powered Boost.Range. A few comments: [Infinite ranges] Boost.Iterator now has function_input_iterator which can be used to represent infinite ranges. IMHO, function_input_iterator is not so flexible and its implementation has some flaw: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5825 Oven's infinite range does not have such an issue, right? I think it's nice to start a new thread to introduce and discuss oven's infinite range. [Incompatibilities between Boost.Range and Oven] Oven has some incompatibilities with Boost.Range. For example, boost::as_literal is not the same as oven::as_literal. It is oven::as_c_str that corresponds to boost::as_literal. To support these oven functions, we need to introduce breaking changes. So I'm also interested in the next version of Boost.Range, which might introduce breaking changes and fully uses C++11 features :) P.S. Boost.Range has recently changed size_type from signed to unsigned. (This is done only on trunk). Does this affect your library? Regards, Michel
