I understand how to achieve
int i=convert<int>::from(str, 0)((locale_=new_locale, throw_=true));
You should be able to do it without the double parens. Is there documentation missing?
Dave, Apologies for not answering your question earlier. I am not sure how I managed to miss it. The answer is 'no', I do not think there is Boost.Parameter documentation missing. Unfortunately, my understanding was/is that to achieve that I have to resort to Boost.Parameter macros which I managed to avoid so far. I think I understand the non-macros part of Boost.Parameter. I quite like it and I am comfortable using it. Boost.Parameter macros seemed too complex and looked too "alien" which exacerbated my general dislike of macros. Please do not take it as a criticism of any kind. It's merely my "casual-user" impression which can easily be wrong as I was not prepared to spend enough time playing with Boost.Parameter macros. V.
