have you thought about doing sequences over SAFEARRAY's?

maybe not complete SAFEARRAY's but single dimension ones

 have you thought about doing sequences over SAFEARRAY's?

Many times. Just not got round to it.

I'll bump it up on the list. ;)

Glad to know... I cooked up something quick to work in the meantime...

I'm finally getting into REALLY using stlsoft, and I'll be letting you know
all comments I come up with..
To start, I've got a question about why you chose to do functionals (like
listbox_add_inserter) as, well, functions, to use with for_each and not
iterators (in the spirit of back_inserter and alike) to use with copy or
transform? or can you use 'em like that anyway and I couldn't figure out
how? I figure you thought about both ways, so I'm curious as to why the
choice...

Here's a very rough first draft. It presents all elements from N dimensions
in a single iterable (forward or backwards) sequence. It does not own the
SAFEARRAY.

Seems to be working fine...

It treats the elements in all dimensions as a single sequence, right? works
fine for me right now, I've got single dimension arrays only...

Great work, thanks...

Pleasure.

Naturally I'll look to expand it in several ways in the future, but I think
it's a good STL-isation of safe-arrays for the moment. Glad that you agree
.... ;)

Habit and truculence, probably. I am aware that I do bias towards for_each() a
lot.

It would be *very* helpful if you could identify a few cases where you think
it's
inappropriate, and suggest an alternative (presumably based on std::copy or
std::transform). That could help me a lot.

Cheers

Maybe you'd want to check Andrei Alexandrecu's automation_vector.  It is a
very complete wrapper over SAFEARRAY with an STL interface.

Try:
http://www.moderncppdesign.com

Then go to Publications.  The article was published on CUJ in April 1999.

There's a minor bump if you compile the source code with VC7 or VC7.1
compilers, but nothing major.
