[boost] [MultiArray] shape() return type

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Has there ever been any thought to making multi_array::shape() return something that models the Collection concept (RandomAccessCollection in particular I suppose) rather than a raw pointer? This would allow the return value from shape() to be passed directly to multi_array::reshape() or multi_array::resize(), for added convenience. It would also allow a debug assertion to be added to make sure you don't try to access beyond the end of the array returned by shape(). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkpDxwoACgkQ5vihyNWuA4UrlACcDd/AZgM4lab3pFu96TJsc9Om 6O0AoL4DCYxWtsNBJBdvaVwp/n3p5h80 =6Wss -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
