The Mirror library has been around for nearly a year. I would like to start doing the preparations for getting the library ready for a formal review and before that I would like to hear your opinions on whether this library actually belongs to Boost and any suggestions on how to improve it or what to change.
For those of you who are not familiar with it, Mirror is a compile-time reflection facility with some run-time features.
From a quick reading of the documentation, I can see this library allows: - to register members of a class and to be able to iterate them later at compile-time. That kind of thing is already provided by Boost.Fusion somehow. - to demangle the result of std::type_info::name - to remove the namespace information from the demangled name - to do some tests on namespaces which seem quite arcane and not very useful to me. So I don't see anything really compelling in it. Maybe a few use cases of your library would make me more interested?
