I thought "twice< add_pointer<_>, _ >" was a perfectly valid
metafunction, but the following code does not work:
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/type_traits.hpp >
#include <boost/mpl/vector.hpp>
#include <boost/mpl/vector_c.hpp>
#include <boost/mpl/transform.hpp>
#include <boost/mpl/times.hpp>
using namespace boost; // ...
using namespace mpl; // ...
// Metafunction class.
struct metaf
{
template<typena me T>
struct apply : public plus< int_<1>, T > {};
};
// Metafunction.
template<typena me F, typename X>
struct twice : public apply< F, typename apply< F, X >::type > {};
// Metafunction: X -> X****
template<typena me X>
struct Add4Ptrs
{
typedef typename twice< add_pointer<_>, typename
twice<add_point er<_>, X>::type >::type type;
};
// Metafunction: X -> X****
template<typena me X>
struct Add4Ptrs_v2
{
typedef typename twice< twice< add_pointer<_>, _ >, X >::type type;
};
int main()
{
typedef transform< vector_c<int,1, 2,3>, metaf >::type res0;
// ok
typedef transform< vector_c<int,1, 2,3>, plus< _, int_<1> > >::type
res1; // 3.1
typedef transform< vector_c<int,1, 2,3>, times< _, _1 > >::type
res2; // 3.2
typedef Add4Ptrs<int>:: type res3;
// 3.3
typedef Add4Ptrs_v2<int >::type res4;
// 3.4
std::cout << typeid(res0).na me() << std::endl << std::endl;
std::cout << typeid(res1).na me() << std::endl << std::endl;
std::cout << typeid(res2).na me() << std::endl << std::endl;
std::cout << typeid(res3).na me() << std::endl << std::endl;
std::cout << typeid(res4).na me() << std::endl << std::endl;
}
