Should we refer to your technique (making sure that std::swap is more specialized than boost::swap) as an "ADL barrier" as well?
Decidedly not. It has nothing to do with ADL.
Or is a different term more appropriate? Is it a known C++ "idiom"?
I'm asking because the term "barrier namespace" still needs to be replaced by something else, at two places within the documentation: http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/libs/utility/swap.html http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/libs/utility/swap/test/test_adl_barrier...
Yeah. We need a better term, but I'm not quite sure what. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
