[boost] Re: Proposal: strings as template parameters?

  I took a quick look at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/files/static_string.zip
  Basically it treats static string kind of like a tuple of all
characters?
  That seems like a reasonable implementation.  (As basic idea, I have
not truly reviewed it).  Of course, language support for making usage
easier would be nice.  
  I would have to imagine that a proposal for support of type
lists/tuples is under way... it would be interesting if since normal
strings (char *) are not supported if a string was expanded into a list
of characters when used in templates.
