o.assign(val); o.clear();
That looks obviously not pointer like to me. And clear enough as to the meaning. But of course it brings to mind the idea that it's just a single value container, and hence possibly should have some more of those interfaces.
I suspect that adding container-like functions to the pointer interface will do more harm than good. -- Rob Stewart stewart@sig.com Software Engineer http://www.sig.com Susquehanna International Group, LLP using std::disclaimer;
