This sounds like it might have significant overlap with Thorsten Ottosen's auto_vector (http://www.cs.aau.dk/~nesotto/boost/auto_buffer.zip), which is in the boost review queue ( http://www.boost.org/community/review_schedule.html) but does not yet have dates assigned.
This does look like it meets many of my goals as well. Am I correct that this would be similar to the vector in the Container library, where the memory would be local to the allocator supplied as a parameter? Sticking as closely as possible to boost.array as possible with added tracking of the size of what is stored inside it as I do here may still be useful. I also had a goal of keeping StaticVector as a POD object. Can that be achieved with a custom allocator? I don't modify allocators frequently so I'm not familiar with all the details and implications of their design. Cheers! Andrew Hundt
