FWIW, there is sound (IMO at least) alignment proposal for the std, so we may not need to worry anymore about this in the not so distant future.
I don't think that proposal gives us any more guarantees than we have today.
Oh.. I was refering to n1546..
Oh, Attila's proposal?
Do you as well?
No, sorry, I was referring to the TR1 type traits spec.
I interpreted that the idea there is to be able to spell:
char align_as<T> storage[sizeof(T)];
And let the compiler do the magic.
Isn't that all we need? Or is that the proposal was rejected?
Many proposals don't make it without ever really being rejected. It's probably not -- as of yet -- accepted, though. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
