Yes:=20 Should it be done? IMHO, no. Making an entirely-template API means potentially a lot of code bloat. It= =20 means all of the actual API is implemented in private APIs, called by inlin= e=20 template methods. > C++ provides many tools, we must try to use all of them appropriately! Appropriately also implies that there are conditions under which some tools= =20 must not be used. I believe this to be one of them. --=20 Thiago Macieira - thiago (AT) macieira.info - thiago (AT) kde.org Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center PGP/GPG: 0x6EF45358; fingerprint: E067 918B B660 DBD1 105C 966C 33F5 F005 6EF4 5358 --=20 ---=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= ISO C++ Standard - Future Proposals" group.
