Re: [boost] Dynamic pluggable factories?

There have been a few boost users, including myself, who have inquired 
to the interest in such as library, but for some reason very few people 
were interested.

FYI, I have a pluggable factory implementation in the vault at 
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/files/object_factory/ if you are 
interested.  This particular version has only been tested on Visual 
Studio .NET though, and requires a fairly compliant compiler.  I've been 
working on another version which works on non-compliant compilers, such 
as VC++ 6.0, but it's not quite finished yet as I've been very busy with 
other projects.
