is 'end' in boost?
I think the recently accepted container traits library has it.
indeed. See <boost/range/end.hpp> in the main cvs.
That's cool. Then, what is the motivation of the initialization library?

1. initilization. 2. easy syntax with pairs for maps 3. easy syntax n-tuples of arguments 4. you can also choose to call eg. push_front instead of push_back if the container allows it 5. a few hooks like vector<int> v; v += 1,repeat(5,1); // do 5 1's br Thorsten
