Re: [boost] Is there any interest in getting pseudo random number generation using preprocessor at compile time into the Preprocessor library?

For example, a protected code has to be surrounded by PROTECTION_START(level) ... PROTECTION_END() macros, where 'level' is a good candidate for being random at compile time. In general, this feature is very useful for many code obfuscation mechanisms. This is similar to __COUNTER__, though not everybody use __COUNTER__ but it doesn't make it useless.

Need your opinion regarding the relevance and the approach correctness of the feature.

While this is interesting, I'm not sure when I would ever need such a feature. In Christ, Steven Watanabe _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
