Hi, i'm on the verge of completing a first release of a fully featured multimethods component for C++, one in which i believe goes beyond anything currently available and is very suited to become part of boost. I'm fully aware of Jesse Jones's contribution however his library has not become an offical part of boost and i believe my version takes things much further in thew different ways and i have some nice ideas for the next version to make even better. It's inspired by boost/std::tr1::function and CLOS generic functions and thus works like bost::/std::tr1::function preferred syntax ALA function types e.g: typedef boost::shared_ptr<fuzz> fuzz_ptr; generic_function< void (const foo&, int, bar*, float, fuzz_ptr) > foobar; where foo, bar and fuzz are polymorphic types and automatically are considered for multiple dispatch, detection of which arguments are choosen for dispatch is automated (and yes there already is support for smart/proxy pointers/references in place with std::auto_ptr, boost::/std::tr1::shared/intrusive_ptr working out-the-box). The order and placement of arguments is irrelevant and non-polymorphic arguments are totally allowed, covariant return types comes for free and work similar to covariant return types of virtual member functions. I think i'll just stop writing about the library any further (abit more to it than this) i just like to know if you guys are interested in making this an offical part of boost and to be worked on further by myself and with the help of others. P.S By the way this has been built with boost mpl, preprocessor and type traits from the beginning and interlope with other boost components in mind i.e phoenix, lambda, fusion, bind, function etc, etc.
