Are the docs available online anywhere?
* added generalizations to the new-line and skip-line manipulators
I won't get time to look at, let alone review, this and the other upcoming IO libraries, but I wondered if any of them (or perhaps even std components??) allow me to easily solve this problem:
<snip>
'brd' is an object representing a game board and it outputs the values in a 2d array. The operator<< does not output a leading carriage-return, but smart assert outputs something like this:
brd = ' 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f g h i ';
So, what I want is something to say insert a carriage-return before calling operator<<, e.g. SMART_ASSERT( this==that )(prefix_cr(brd))(this)(that);
Why not something like: template<typename T> struct cr_prefixed { cr_prefixed(T& t) : t(t) { } void print(std::ostream& out) const { out << "\n" << t; } T& t; }; template<typename T> std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& out, const cr_prefixed<T>& p) { p.print(out); return out; } template<typename T> cr_prefixed<T> prefix_cr(T& t) { return cr_prefixed<T>(t); } Is there a more general version of the problem?
