I'm not sure what makes the most sense here.
Adam & Eve are languages, interpreters, environments etc.
http://stlab.adobe.com/group__eve__engine.html Layout Library (Eve) http://stlab.adobe.com/group__asl__tutorials__eve.html: Eve is broken up into two distinct pieces: the parser and the engine. Note that both components exist completely independently of each other, though they are built in a way that they bind together easily. We will discuss both components in turn. There is also a third component, referred to herein as the assemblage code, which is the client-specified code that binds the parser to the engine. Seems like a library plus some other significant parts.
Does it really make it sense to put these in Boost, which is a repository of C++ libraries?
I honestly don't know. -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
