Something like it will come in C++14, but we could provide it here for C++11 users? Do we already have one? Here's how to use one: template < typename Function, typename T, class Tuple, std::size_t ...I > void apply_x_and_exploded_tuple_impl( Function &&f, T &&x, Tuple &&t, indices_too ) { using std::forward; forward<Function>( f )( forward<T>(x), forward::type>(std::get<I>( t ))... ); } template < typename Function, typename T, class Tuple > void apply_x_and_exploded_tuple( Function &&f, T &&x, Tuple &&t ) { using std::forward; apply_x_and_exploded_tuple_impl( forward<Function>(f), forward<T>(x), forward<Tuple>(t), typename make_indices_too::value>::type{} ); } Daryle W.

Hi Daryle, I think package_c here: http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/variadic_templates/boost/mpl/package_... does that. And, package_range_c here: http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/variadic_templates/boost/mpl/package_... does, I'm guessing, something similar to make_indices_too, only it can do it either in reverse or forward order. And, unpack_args here: http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/variadic_templates/boost/mpl/unpack_a... does maybe something like apply_x_and_exploded_tuple_impl. So, I'd agree that these additions to boost would be useful. -regards, Larry
