Re: [boost] New implementation of remove_xxx for vintage compilers

Now that typeof has been checked into the CVS tree, what are the chances that we can get implementations of remove_pointer, remove_bounds, remove_reference, etc. for VC6 and VC7? See the attached message for a link to a typeof-based implementation.

I would like to this this happen. It would fix problems in Boost.Range and Boost.Foreach for those compilers.

I'd like to see a comparison of compilation times between the old and the new implementation and the latter being stress tested on Boost.Python tests before it officially replaces the current code. -- Aleksey Gurtovoy MetaCommunications Engineering
