Would that make the documentation easier to read? I don't see any other benefit to using it here; there are only three optional parameters, and two of them have the same type (bool) so they couldn't benefit from Boost.Parameter's automatic deduction.
Why not ? As the parameter docs points out having two bool parameters can get confusing. And i don't like having to specify the allocator every time . Of course is't just some syntactic sugar.
bools are the easiest type in the world to eliminate the “same type” problem with. Just use enums. Then deduced template arguments become beautiful.
Ah, yes... thanks. I'm not sure whether there's enough call to use Boost.Parameter for the XInt library, but if there is, that will make it a lot more elegant. - -- Chad Nelson Oak Circle Software, Inc. * * * -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkwHMIsACgkQp9x9jeZ9/wTHegCfW+kRtqGi5G3PM9bxoapHxwCJ gOEAn3i5ecUbcDl0fAfqu7EX/vPUEu11 =OgD/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
