Thanks for your reply. Yes, I know. VC++ 7.1 does handle all of Boost correctly and compiles 100% of it correctly. Given that, let me try my question again. What parts of Boost best emplify advanced uses of templates such as Partial Template Specialization and are understandable in small pieces? The goal is to put together a "teaching demo" on
I have not been doing a large amount of Standard C++ for the last 2 years and seem to have fallen behind the times-) I'm catching up (reading Alexandrescu) but got a way to go. One of the things that I seem to have missed is traits? What are they? How do they relate to his Policy classes? Since these are not Boost specific questions and are more C++ questions is there a good C++ newsgroup that is recommended as all the books I have don't seem to cover "advanced" topics well. Thanks in advance.

like Partial Template Specialization and then show how it is used in practice in libraries like Boost. Thanks in advance.
How about the type traits remove_XXX templates? Or even some of the is_XXX templates, although the latter tend to have rather a lot of workarounds cluttering up the code.
