[Boost-users] MPL & Shared Libraries

Hi,

I heard from someone that when building a shared library (DLL file), the
compiler will not do the same processing of MPL code that it would do for an
EXE. For example:

struct Foo
{
    static const float val = 1.5f;
};

When exporting the 'Foo' class to a shared library, what will become of the
'val' member? Is just the number "1.5f" written out or what? I've given a
very simple example, but the more complex example expands into the
boost::mpl library, which follows the same concepts.
