[what's a mono-sequence?]
The opposite of hetero-sequence :P
A mono-sequence is the opposite of a multi-sequence. The opposite of a hetero-sequence is a homo-sequence.
It's not the same thing at all. In the case of array<int>, the sequence has the same elements in either case; we're just talking about two ways of accessing the same sequence. In the case of std::pair there are two completely distinct interpretations, either of which could be valid. In my case I think there are only two possible choices:
1. say that std::pair needs to be wrapped or otherwise transformed before I know how to treat it.
2. pick one of the two interpretations.
I'm sorry. I think I'm lost. With:
pair<int*,int*>
or
tuple<int*,int*,int*,int*>
or
array<int*>
I see the same elements. What am I missing?
* Boost.Range and Boost.Fusion both interpret an int*[4] as a sequence of 4 values of type int*. Consistent * Boost.Fusion interprets a pair<int*,int*> as a sequence of two values of type int*. * Boost.Range interprets a pair<int*,int*> x as a sequence of x.second-x.first values of type int. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
