Does this direction make sense?
Any particular reason why BOOST_TYPEOF is not an option?
It requires type registration, whereas this approach should not. That's the only reason.
FWIW I would prefer to live with BOOST_TYPEOF and type registration. I have no doubt that registration will have its problems but only by familiarity will they be solved.
Huh? How will familiarity with the problem help? I can't ask my library's users to register types.
Why not? We all want decltype and auto in the language dont we? BOOST_TYPEOF is the closest we have. Show your users how to use it while we wait for language support. regards Andy Little
