Hi,
Sometime ago there was discussion about an "enhanced" Boost.String (super_string) library from Jeff.
Has there been any interest in this as-of lately?
Nope...it's gone quiet.
Is there possibilility that it will be get included in Boost? It sure will attract the attention of c++ novices.
I'm unsure I want to bring it to a review. The discussion over the summer was very divided. I feel strongly that it's useful and I think I swayed some doubters, but there is a hard-core group that opposes the approach. So, I don't want to waste my time preparing something for review that is doomed. So I might prefer to maintain it as an unofficial 'boost extension'...
Also Jeff: Are most of the interfaces for string_algo implemented in your super_string library from RC_1.34?
It's a subset, and yes they are implemented on top of 1.34 RC. Note that some of the functions use Boost.Regex and Boost.format as well. Jeff
