The library is intended to play well with the rest of Boost, it already contains support for structures built with Boost.Optional and Boost.Variant, and Boost.Fusion, and will support other Boost libraries in future releases. The library makes heavy use of function objects, and is intended to work with Boost.Lambda, Phoenix, and other function object libraries in Boost.

This must be a good idea ... because like all good ideas I can't believe that no one has done this before :-)
It's been done before in Haskell and even in C++ too: http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?doid=1159861.1159871 The document mentions Fusion, but, as a proof of concept does not take advantage of it, nor any Boost library, opting instead to use straight C++. Dan's work is a Boostified and Fusionified version of it. Regards, -- Joel de Guzman http://www.boost-consulting.com http://spirit.sf.net
