Hi Dave,
That's going to be an interesting presentation. Here is a small
piece of
code that allows to generate a traits structure that determines if a call can be made on an object with a specific function name and specific arguments and return value :
https://gist.github.com/2276393 (compile with : g++ -std=c++0x -Wall -o has_callable has_callable.cpp)
This was not possible in C++03, or at least not completely possible, and the code is much simpler with C++11 for the cases where it was possible as well.
Well, there's this: http://tinyurl.com/85sv5sy [*]
I wonder if this technique could be extended for member functions in C++03. Thanks, Paul Fultz II
