Re: [boost] [interval] implicit versus explicit conversions

Hi Vicente, 2011/6/17 Vicente Botet <vicente.botet@wanadoo.fr>:

Hi,

The current interface of boost::interval defines the following implicit conversions

 interval(T const &v);  template<class T1> interval(T1 const &v);  template<class T1, class Policies1> interval(interval<T1, Policies1>, const &r);

I was wondering if some/all of these shouldn't be declared explicit.

Any thoughts?

I think you are right. They should be explicit. Unfortunately the authors of Boost.Interval seem not to be active anymore. As for your "angle bracket problem". Can't you switch off html-mode in your mail/news-reader? Or change the mail/new program all together? Cheers, Joachim -- Interval Container Library [Boost.Icl] http://www.joachim-faulhaber.de
