Is there any interest in a library for type erasure? My basic idea is to define each operation separately and use a sequence of them. As a simple example:

void f() { erasure<boost::mpl::vector<ostreamable, incrementable> > object (0); ++object; std::cout << object; //prints 1 }

I'm sure there's interest. Alexander Nasonov was working on a "dynamic_any" library with a similar approach. Doug
