[boost] [TTI] Review Result
This is the result summary for the Type Traits Introspection library by Edward Diener. The review have been on going from July 1st to july 17th and had generated a large amount of very interesting design discussion. The library received 5 Positive reviews and a few positive comments next to that. **The verdict is that, the TTI Library is ACCEPTED into Boost.** However, a few comments and concerns have been raised but are rather simple changes to perform and I am sure Edward will take these comments into account before releasing the library. Such comments include: * The main comment is the fact that Boost.TTI force the definitions of its meta-functions into the boost::tti. Concerns have been raised and requests made that the macro don't specify any namespace and let users bring the generated meta-functions in the namespace of their own liking. * The number of macros handling various corner cases has been raised as potentially too high. Effort to streamline the macro based interface has been requested. * Support for more compiler is needed. Some issues on ICC has been raised but are currently being looked upon (or fixed). * Naming scheme of the macro and of the generated meta-functions have to be refined to be 1/ more clear 2/ avoid some non-standard name starting with __ * Some more detailed and entry-level examples may be beneficial to the library * Pre-made macro for classical typedef like value_type or other std components has been proposed Thanks to all the participants and to Edward for this review. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
