Hi,
I'm developing a scoped enum library that use an emulation wrapping the native enum on a class to get scoped enumerators.
I need some traits, to get the native type from the emulation, and the coping class from the native one. In addition there is an underlying type that is used to store the enumerators. Next follows the names I have use in the library:
native_type::type underlying_type::type scoping_type::type
In addition I have defined some functions that make the conversions from these types
template native_type::type native_value(ScopedEnum e);
template underlying_type::type underlying_value(ScopedEnum e);
I have defined all these under the boost::enums namespace.
Do you have a better proposal for these (meta-)functions?
If you need more details you can take a look in the sandbow/enums directory http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/enums/libs/enums/doc/html/index.html
Best, Vicente
P.S. Note native-type and native_value are yet in the doc as enum_type and enum_value. The tutorial is really in a very draft state :(
Perhaps you can summarize what these types and (meta-)functions are suppose to be/do? I trolled through the documentation but...it's kind of long for me to go through the whole thing at the moment :/ - Jeff
