AFAICT the name ftag should be changed to something more descriptive and more certainly unique, e.g. boost_fusion_iterator_tag. Is there a reason it needs to be so short? Why make such a trivial change to the interface post review? AFAICS now is too late, and will cause unnecessary pain to users.. like myself. Well, actually, it shouldn't be a part of the interface. Here, I'm used to calling it the f#%$tag :) It's not supposed to be for public consumption, and I intend to enforce that. Either way, it's not a good name (especially for minors. ;) and it must be changed.
And BTW its pretty public in the 'make your own iterator" part of the docs.
Yeah. That's unfortunate. I asked Dan to fix it. Anyway, I suggest you do the right thing: specialize tag_of.
AFAICS specialising tag_of don't seem to work with current CVS. I seem to need to put the intrusive fusion_tag F*tag in, then things work OK. Also should I be specialising category_of or using a category F*tag ? Keep rockin'......... regards Andy Little
