1. scope_guard.hpp: maybe this file could be moved into boost/detail and used by multi_index + iostreams until something gets boostified.
I'm for this. Unfortunately, my simplified scope_guard isn't working on CW8.3 (though it passes the regression tests I've written for it.) So I'll probably use Joaquín's.
Jonathan, does your CW 8.3 problem has to do with premature execution of the guard code? if so, then this is due not to your code, but to a compiler bug about the lifetime of temporary objects bound to references. See the following for a description: http://lists.boost.org/MailArchives/boost/msg65882.php This problem happens only when the "ISO C++ Template Parser" mode is on, so it can be avoided by explicitly setting the mode off with pragmas. Go to boost/multi_index_container.hpp and search for the two occurrences of parse_mfunc_templ in lines 77 and 531. Hope this helps, Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo
