[Boost-users] Field of record as boost::any

Hi,

Is boost::any suitable to use it as a type of
field of record?
Record is a set of fields.
Every field may store value of different type: int, double, char*.

Usually, in this case I'd use union of int,double and char*.
But I'd like to solve it a better way, more C++ than C.

So, would you recommend boost::any as a type of field value?

Cheers
