I have a suspicion this is all ancient history now, but I was surprised this code worked.
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <boost/range/adaptor/transformed.hpp>
struct TimesTwo
{
// using result_type = int;
int operator( )( int i ) const { return i * 2; }
};
int main( )
{
using namespace std;
using namespace boost::adaptors;
vector<int> v { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
for( int i : v | transformed( TimesTwo( ) ) ) { cout << i << " "; }
cout << endl;
}
Due to result_type being commented out. Am I right in thinking this is what BOOST_RESULT_OF_USE_DECLTYPE was all about, and everything now just works because modern compilers are implemtenting decltype now?
