I fail to see the problem. The similarity is IMHO helpful, as both deduce the type to generate from their parameters. > get_shared_ptr. I.e. instead of 'get' implies (at least to me), that it only fetches a pointer/reference to something which already exists. The function in questions constructs the shared_ptr, so 'get' would be misleading. YMMV. :)) Regards, Daniel -- Daniel Frey aixigo AG - financial training, research and technology Schloß-Rahe-Straße 15, 52072 Aachen, Germany fon: +49 (0)241 936737-42, fax: +49 (0)241 936737-99 eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED], web: http://www.aixigo.de _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
