Hello, First of all, I think that a pimpl library should have a place in boost, but I think that the pimpl idiom do not scale very well (see below). Even if your library is usable in simple cases, I would like to see how it can manage more complex cases. And if no satisfactory solution to this case is possible, that the library states explicitly when it can not be used. Do you think to write the library documentation before the review? Even if there is a tutorial in DDJ, IMHO, you should spend some time on the documentation of the library before the review. --------------------------- Vicente Juan Botet Escriba ----- Original Message ----- From: <Vladimir.Batov@wrsa.com.au> To: <boost@lists.boost.org> Sent: Monday, March 31, 2008 6:34 AM Subject: [boost] Review Request: Generalization of the Pimpl idiom
I hope I am following the submission procedure correctly. I read the guidelines and I seem to do what is needed. Apologies if I missed something.
The code is in the Boost Vault called Pimpl.zip It compiles with GCC 4.1.2 (I use it on Ubuntu 7.04) and MS Visual Studio 2005. Documentation is at DDJ site: http://www.ddj.com/cpp/205918714 Any questions/suggestions/critique - vladimir.batov@wrsa.com.au
