Ta!
Question: have you thought about how difficult this is to add to Boost.MultiIndex/Boost.Bimap?
I haven't given it any thought until now. In principle I don't see any problem with adding it to either.
From a MultiIndex user's perspective, you'd be adding augmentations to specific ordered indexes.
I expect the main difficulty would just be the duplication of effort. I don't think that having the Intrusive augmentations code available would make the task of adding augmentations to MultiIndex/Bimap much quicker. But I could be wrong on that last point - I'll take a look at multi-index sometime (no promises of when) to get a better idea. It's a pity that these libraries aren't built upon Boost.Intrusive; that'd make it rather easy! Cheers, Jeff
