Agreed. I think we discussed the syntax stuff enough.
Well, just one thing I'd like to add: it would be a shame if your Boost library doesn't provide alternate macros usable by anyone who is willing to depend on the C99 preprocessor, that take advantage of variadics.
Sure, I agree. As I mentioned in previous emails, I am taking on the assignments to: 1) Look into how variadics, empty sequences, and other C99-like preprocessor extensions might simply the parenthesized syntax. 2) Look into how Alex-Steven's macro syntax can simplify the parenthesized syntax. At the same time, I would like to encourage people to try out the parenthesized syntax of Boost.Local as is and tell me its pros and cons. Thanks :) -- Lorenzo
