Therefore, unless something major comes up later we are settling on "boost::string".
That's rather dismissive of the complaints. "text," "convert," and "conversion" seem at least as good as "string."
Would "lexical" as a namespace name help to remind of the link to lexical_cast? (The dictionary meaning is not quite right - but lexical has been hijacked already?) Paul --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal, UK LA8 8AB +44 1539 561830, mobile +44 7714330204 pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
