I want to pass the result of a map_list_of call as an argument to a class ctor, but the only way I've managed to do this is by using some stuff from the assign_detail namespace. Is there any other (more elegant) way of achieving this? See example code below. Thanks/Rgds, Fredrik class A { public: typedef map<int, int> map_type; // Simply using the container iterator type doesn't seem to work since one needs the // iterator of the impl_type defined in assign_detail::generic_list which is // publicly exposed as generic_list<T>::const_iterator. typedef boost::assign_detail::generic_list<std::pair<int, int>

::const_iterator c_it;

A(c_it _first, c_it _last) : m_map(_first, _last) { } private: map<int, int> m_map; }; void test() { A a(map_list_of(1,1)(2,2)); } This e-mail, its content and any files transmitted with it are intended solely for the addressee(s) and may be legally privileged and/or confidential.
