How would such dynamic_array be better (different) than std::vector?
I wouldn't say it's better. It would be just a bit more suitable in a situation where you know that you will deal with a fixed number of elements at runtime. The interface would be probably similar to std::vector but without inserting/removing operations. While std::vector is the natural choice when you need a dynamic array and boost::array when you know the (fixed) size at compile time this new array type (whatever the name would be) would be chosen when you know the (fixed) size only at runtime.
You still have not stated what advantages such a container would have over a resizable container. In other words, if you omit the resize() et. al. from std::vector, what extra functionality can be gained in return? Ian McCulloch
