Very nice explanation, thanks.

Looks very good. But then again, it's really what I said: duplicate work.
Competition is good, no doubt about it. But it's duplicate effort
nonetheless.

Maybe if SOCI creates it's own expression grammar for SQL queries it would
be a faster and more practical solution, since SOCI has been around for
quite some time and has solved several issues along the way. And the
expression tree for SQL queries is the fastest part of such a library. The
eye candy and sugar should be easy to convert to string and use the SOCI
engine for it.

Sqlpp11 will still need to reimplement what SOCI has done several years ago.

So I hope both sqlpp11 and SOCI get their work done and offer us such a
nice combination. They will inspire each other.

Best wishes,
