yes!
its irritating especially for boost authors because it dosn't wok portable; putting the code into boost::begin() solves that once and for all.
What portability issue are you referring to? On what compilers is there a portability problem? I should note that old compilers like vc6 and vc7 don't support ADL for regular functions (just operators), so our approach, which puts the code into boost::begin(), doesn't work on those compilers anyway. Not that I care too much about them, but when someone cites portability issues, they're the usual culprits ;-) -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
