There are lots of names which in C++0x occur in both boost:: and std::. The big ones are tuple, make_tuple and array, but there are others (for example locking functions from thread).
Just wondering, shouldn't boost::array just map to std::array if the latter is available?
The two aren't entirely compatible, although they are close (boost::array has assign, static_size). Probably the major thing is that boost has a much more relaxed operator=. Also "map to" is tricky to do in C++ effectively. Chris
