Subject: [Boost-users] Converting between two different enumerations
From: John Dlugosz (JDlugosz_at_[hidden])

I'm looking at a lot of boilerplate code where two different enumerations are used for the same semantic meaning, and a pair of functions (a bit switch statement) converts one to the other.

In this case, all the values are #define constants, not typed enumerations. But there are lots of such pairs.

I'm wondering if there is a simple "bi-map" class that can take a list of pairs and produce the effect of both functions. If one of the lists of values is consecutive it should be especially easy to initialize.
