Sorry for being absent during the last month but it was very hard to
find any time to work on the addition of the operator traits.
I have not yet had the time to deal with the naming issue...
But I found something more tricky while trying to solve the issue of
reference types (& was just ignored).
I never used the volatile qualifier but I found that the following
behaviour breaks the code that detects if an operator returns void or
not.
Could someone tell me why the following code does not compile?
bool f() { }
void g(const volatile bool &) { }
int main() {
        g(f());
        return 0;
}
A const volatile reference can't be bound to
an rvalue.
