This interface requires variadic (C99) preprocessor support, does it not?
Quite so David. So, limited portability - unless your preprocessor library has some relevant workarounds? Cheers, Tony
You could try to look at < http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_36_0/libs/preprocessor/doc/index.html> to avoid variadic macros. I am not sure if it is applicable at your library, though.
Oops, I didn't consider frames. The right URL is < http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_36_0/libs/preprocessor/doc/data/sequences.ht...

I don't have a preprocessor library. For C98 compatibility Boost.Preprocessor would probably support BENUM(X, (A = 1)(B)(C = 22)(D = B|N)); -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
