I am reading Siek's thesis describing MTL. It all seems very nice.
Recommended reading.
I did have a few small questions about the implementation
of the containers. He talks about implementing in terms of
adaptors over STL containers such as std::vector and std::list,
but does not mention std::valarray. Is there some deficiency
in std::valarray which makes it unacceptable? Also, I'm wondering
about the interaction between the Mayfly pattern and STL
valarray slicing. Could I imagine implementing the containers
and mayflies in terms of valarray and slices, or is there
again some hidden problem?
