I have no understanding of the work your facades/adapters/? may be doing. In pure ignorance;
Rob Stewart pointed out that dev is sometimes an abbreviation for "development" or "developer."
The reason I'm not too excited about "device_streambuf" and
"device_stream" is
that they're hard to pronounce without running the final consonant of "device" into the initial consonant of "stream" or "streambuf."
They read better than "dev".
Thanks for your input. I've eliminated te "dev" variants, but am still considering the others. Jonathan
