Ergo I restate my case that this library should NOT be called Pimpl. Maybe PimplHolder or something like that, but calling it Pimpl confuses at least two people :-)
I was never confused as to whether this library would magically implement the impl class, though I think Asger may have flirted with the idea of forwarding functions. Nevertheless, I can see calling the class pimpl_ptr, if that suffix would clarify matters for you.
Let's not forget that the first P in pimpl stands for 'pointer'. :-)
I raised that point previously, but that didn't seem to help. -- Rob Stewart stewart@sig.com Software Engineer http://www.sig.com Susquehanna International Group, LLP using std::disclaimer;
