Thanks bearophile. Your first suggestion about making the
struct a template is something I considered. However, because
of all the code I've already written that approach would force
me to use inheritance or convert a ton of functions to
templates. Ick.
The __ctor syntax looks like the answer to my question. If my
struct is used by anyone else though, I'm not sure it would be
OK to assume they would even be aware of that syntax. hmmm...
Thinking I'll just make it a runtime parameter for now.
You could also hide the ugly __ctor() call behind a nicely named
factory method.
