Re: [PATCH] Canonical types (1/3)
Hi Doug,
a quick reply to a couple of specific points of yours.
Anyway, even with a fix for 19163, you still need to enumerate all of
the possible alignment values, right?
I don't think so: see my comment in type_traits. Actually, this is the
whole point of my message ;) In my opinion this *should* work:
template<std::size_t _Len, std::size_t _Align>
struct aligned_storage
{ typedef char type[_Len] __attribute__((__aligned__(_Align)));
AFAIK, it works *already* with the Intel compiler :-/
If so, then there is a
workaround for TR1/C++0x aligned_storage. GCC handles alignment
properly on class types, so Boost uses this little hack to make its
"type_with_alignment" trait work:
Before going ahead with this part of the discussion: in your opiniuon,
is this solution it substantively better than our *current* implementation?
Paolo.
