Hmmm,  today I noticed that some header files were not committed
successfully, which caused compilation errors on other machines
(tortoise did not report any errors though). Sorry about that.

Anyway, I have fixed that, and the current version (0.1.17) has been
successfully compiled with MSVC++ 2008 EE on Vista and
with gcc (4.2.1 and 4.3.0) on OpenSuSE.

In order to avoid further svn related problems I recommend doing
a clean checkout.

Cheers,

a new version of Mirror library, with quite a few changes, is available
both in the sandbox and in the vault.

Important changes in this version:

- added two functions; for_each and reverse_for_each working
 with meta_class<>::attributes, meta_class<>::all_attributes
 and meta_class<>::base_classes, which allow to call a functor
 for every member attribute and base class of a reflected class.

- added at and size algorithm working with attributes, all_attributes
 and base_classes of a meta_class<>

- removed the original for_each static functions from meta_class::attributes
 and meta_class::all_attributes

- updated existing examples to show the new functionality

- added an 'alpha' implementation of meta_class traversal
 that 'guides' a custom visitor through the structure of the reflected
 class. Two versions ('deep' and 'flat' traversal) are available.

- added a new example showing traversal by a sample visitor,
 that is writing out XML-like info about the given class
 to stdout, with several elaborate classes.

any comments are welcome.

Best,
