(Jeroen, if you're reading this, can you convert to/from e.g. hexadecimal with Coerce?)
It isn't possible at the moment but it is to be re-added during the Google Summer of Code. The syntax will probably look something like coerce::as<int>("0x17", tag::hex());
Aha, that's why I asked. Not currently compatible with Boost.Conversion: just as there's no way to supply iostream manipulators for Convert-style formatting, there's no way to supply tags for Coerce-style. Vicente, do you have any thoughts on whether extra parameters could be added generically? Cheers, Gordon
