I'd be interested in this. The mpl-vt.zip in boost vault/variadic templates shows a partial conversion of mpl to variadic templates. I think such an architectural document would have helped this effort. In particular, I'm now wondering what depends on the iter_fold_if_impl templates because I was having problems as outlined in the file:
Thanks Larry, I'll definitely give it a big try. As I said MPL was on my list. :-) so this fits perfectly. I downloaded http://www.boostpro.com/vault/variadic templates, right ? Now questions: - as you are using variadic templates this is a C++0x feature and I do not know of any architectural analysis tool for C++ which has already a C++0x enabled parser... (though it would be interesting how far an analysis will cope with handling this new language feature) - what I can do now however is analyzing and displaying the IS-architecture of the MPL stuff (non variadic version). I think this would be interesting and a big help... Should I use the current boost release ? (1_38) or the version of the time of your port (i think March 2007). Which release was it ? (maybe a tag or label). kind regards, Berni.
