I forgot to mention if you don't like getting an exception and error message when you pass a 'duff' argument value,

(It doesn't only happen from simple 'head banging' causes! ;-)

John Maddock has carefully provided the policies mechanism to allow you to alter the behaviour of the package.

See the section of policies for some examples - it's not as complicated as it looks.

PS

A PDF build of the documentation for Boost-1.41 (for those libraries that
support it) is now available from the usual sourceforge download site:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/ in the boost-docs/1.41.0
folder.

Direct URL's are:
