OK, fix the core language so that I don't have to write the whole batch of forwarding functions, AND I get the new ones automatically when std::vector gets updated!! No??? don't wanna do that? then it ISA std::vector<> (or whatever STL collection I choose)!!
Actually you don't necessarily need to write forwarding functions you could use private inheritance and employ using. I brings it's own limitations though.
don't I still have to do a using for each method? that means I do NOT get all the nifty new methods for my class when TR9 is released. Ah well, I'll be over 100years old by then, I'll let the young whippersnappers take care of updating the code.
