[boost] Re: [range] update on ADL hooks

Dear all,

I'm going to change the ADL lookup hook of range functions.

instead of the irritating

void foo() { using namespace boost; begin(r); }

we simply now say

void foo() { boost::begin(r); }

and get full ADL lookup. This changes the extension protocol to overiding these three functions:

range_adl_begin() range_adl_end() range_adl_size()

Any comments before I commit?

Yes. I think you should get rid of "ADL" in the name. It doesn't add enough and is easy to misinterpret. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
