More generally, I would really like a Boost library which lets me generate custom error messages portably.
I don't think that's possible. I think error messages are a quality-of-implementation issue. There's nothing preventing a compiler from useless saying "diagnostic found" upon hitting the first error.
There's "theoretical portability" and "in practice" portability. I think Brian was talking about the latter. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
