There is another issue I have with submitting Chaos to Boost. Boost currently requires the use of .hpp file suffixes. However, like Boost.Preprocessor, but unlike all of the rest of Boost, Chaos is a C library also. The rule should be amended to allow for headers which are not specifically C++ headers. Chaos uses the generic .h for precisely this reason. Note that if .hpp is required, I simply will not submit the library. No hacks--including those introduced to workaround rules which should not apply.
I'm not attached to that rule for non-C++ code. -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing Software Development Training http://www.boostpro.com Clang/LLVM/EDG Compilers C++ Boost
