Howdy fellow boosters, Several years ago I started using array_traits. I gathered from some later discussion that this library was never meant to be part of boost. However, I really like the library and find it more useful than the array<> implementation. Point in fact, array_traits and array<> overlap but probably weren't meant to solve the same problems [1].

Is array_traits around any more? I seem to recall something more general purpose. Maybe container_traits?

Thorsten Ottosen's Collection Traits library is the successor to array_traits. It was recently approved for inclusion in Boost and has been renamed Boost.Range.

There was a note several days ago on the developers list that Boost.Range would be included in the next release but only 'unofficially', with no link to it on the libraries page.

A version of the library is in the current CVS. See docs at http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/boost/boost/libs/range/doc/.
