Re: [boost] istream_iterator_limited

- - - - THE IDEA I CAME UP WITH:

Open the file using "ifstream", and then use a special iterator that will stop reading from the file after 32 bytes, with syntax like this:

ifstream logfile("log.txt");

hex( istream_iterator_limited<char>(logfile,32), istream_iterator_limited<char>(), g_some_global_container.begin() );

No takers on this? For the time being I have it in my own personal Boost stash and I use it from time to time when inputting from a file directly into a function like "hex".
