Thanks Jonathan for working on this and explaining in public the whole
thing! My plan would be returning to it in a couple of days, after
Chris' last batch of move semantics and the visibility long standing
PR,
already in my queue. My impression is that changing the build options
is
indeed unfortunately necessary, because, basically, string and wstring
are instantiated in the library (actually, I seem to remember that, in
order to work a bit on the operator[] issue without rebuilding I used
basic_string<short>). We have to carefully document this, in case.
But better also involving Doug, if possible. Doug can you possibly tell
us your take on this issue?
