An example that I think demonstrates the superiority of this:
binary_operation<A,Op,B>::result_type result;
over this:
result_of_plus<A, B>::type result;
in this directory: In Boost CVS there is an implementation of result_of, which would be used like this: result_of<Op(A, B)>::type
I think this is the best interface I've seen so far. The result_of_plus is just a temporary solution while waiting for Doug's result_of work which was not available at the time.
...which is just a temporary solution while we wait for decltype?
Absolutely. But it's a solution we can use to make C++98/C++0x portable libraries. At least, that's the idea :) Doug
