3. I only managed to figure out how to supply only one Boost.Parameter at a time like
int i = convert<int>::from(str, 0)(locale_ = new_locale)(throw_ = true);
I understand how to achieve
int i = convert<int>::from(str, 0)((locale_ = new_locale, throw_ = true));
(with double quotes) but do not want to go there as it looks somewhat unorthodox. I cannot figure out how to achieve the following
The doubled parentheses are, indeed, rare outside Boost.Preprocessor type code.
int i = convert<int>::from(str, 0)(locale_ = new_locale, throw_ = true);
That is certainly preferable syntax.
It's not hard to achieve, but I don't think you'd like the effect: convert<int>::from(str, 0) would have to return a function object rather than an int. What's wrong with int i = convert<int>::from(str, 0, locale_ = new_locale, throw_ = true); ? -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
