Hi,
On trunk there are currently two scoped enum emulation headers. One is the one that Beman wrote, in boost/detail/scoped_enum_emulation.hpp and the other is the one that Vicente has developed for the new version of Boost.Thread, in boost/thread/detail/scoped_enum.hpp
It seems to me that it is a shame to have two implementations of the same thing in boost. Since Vicente's version provides additional facilities, I would therefore like to merge Vicente's code into the boost/detail header. We could retain the simple macros from Beman's header as wrappers for the more complex macros that Vicente has written.
What do you think?
Fine with me, as long as it doesn't break any current usage. It was a mistake from the start to have two ways of doing the same thing, IMO. --Beman
