Hi,
I have recently reread the article "Enforcing Code Feature Requirements in C++" by Scott Meyers <http://www.artima.com/cppsource/codefeaturesP.html>
I have posted some ideas that could improve the design (<http://www.artima.com/forums/flat.jsp?forum=226&thread=238798&start=0#372622>)
I wanted to know if this could be a good subject for GSoC, if the approach I purpose to solve some issues is acceptable and if there is some students interested.
Of course any comments are welcome.
I like the idea of playign with this, but: isn't this somethign Concept and Concept-based SFINAE should handle ?
Sure concepts can help. In my proposition I use traits class to set all the features, but a trait by features is also possible to emulate concepts. IIUC SFINAE needs to add a parameter to the function. The main goal of my approach is to don't need such a parameter. Joel, maybe you can elaborate how the Concept/SFINAE approach manages with this problem. Best, Vicente
