Hi all,

The review of the Robert Kawulak's Constrained Value library begins  
today December 1, 2008, and will end on December 10th -- I will be  
the review manager.  Please post reviews to the developer list.

Here's the library synopsis:

The Boost Constrained Value library contains class templates useful  
for creating constrained objects. A simple example is an object  
representing an hour of a day, for which only integers from the range  
[0, 23] are valid values.

       bounded_int<int, 0, 23>::type hour;
       hour = 20; // OK
       hour = 26; // exception!

Behavior in case of assignment of an invalid value can be customized.  
The library has a policy-based design to allow for flexibility in  
defining constraints and behavior in case of assignment of invalid  
values. Policies may be configured at compile-time for maximum  
efficiency or may be changeable at runtime if such dynamic  
functionality is needed.

The library can be downloaded from the here:

The documentation is also available online here:

---------------------------------------------------

Please state in your review, whether you think the library should be
accepted as a Boost library. Additionally, please consider the  
following aspects in your review of the library:

- What is your evaluation of the design?
- What is your evaluation of the implementation?
- What is your evaluation of the documentation?
- What is your evaluation of the potential usefulness of the library?
- Did you try to use the library?  With what compiler?  Did you have any
problems?
- How much effort did you put into your evaluation? A glance? A quick
reading? In-depth study?
- Are you knowledgeable about the problem domain?

Thanks,

Jeff
