It seems a common example for C++11 and variadic templates is a typesafe printf which is supposed to obsolete things like Boost.Format. However there doesn't seem to be one usable out of the box.
If this is really a large improvement shouldn't this facility be in boost?
VS2013 doesn't implement enough of C++11 yet to implement typesafe printf. Once it does (VS2014), I'm sure we'll see it appear somewhere (maybe in the standard library rather than in Boost. Standard libraries already define more typesafe C functions when __cplusplus is defined). Niall -- Currently unemployed and looking for work.
