[boost] remove_pointer and smart pointers

20 Mar 2005

      Hi,

I need some kind of traits for my indirect_fun class if it should be
usable with smart pointers.

I imagined some like

 template< class T >
    struct pointer_value
    {
        typedef BOOST_DEDUCED_TYPENAME remove_pointer<T>::type type;
    };

 template< class T, class D >
    struct pointer_value< shared_ptr<T,D> >
    {
        typedef T type;
    };

etc.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

-Thorsten
