I believe there is interest -- in fact, there's already such a library in the review queue. It's Thorsten Ottosen's AutoBuffer library.
It appears there is only malloc allocation available in AutoBuffer now, not the in-object allocation I use. While I'm trying to maintain the simplicity of boost.array with size tracking, that may not be others' goal. I would be happy to try adding the allocation style of StaticVector as an additional allocator in AutoBuffer. Unfortunately, I am not sure how I could add the functionality I'm looking for to AutoBuffer myself. Is there a resource I could use to learn what I need to allocate the memory block inside the AutoBuffer object itself without pointers to externally allocated memory? It would be greatly appreciated.
I had thought that was slightly different. I may be misremembering, but I had thought StaticVector has a statically-determined maximum size, while AutoBuffer is something like a variant< StaticVector, std::vector >...
I happen to be using it in an embedded environment myself, but I can use exceptions. Is there some good example code somewhere that I can use as a style guide for implementing a no exceptions option? Cheers! Andrew Hundt
