    May be my question will be a bit naive, but what is about
    boost::multi_index approach? I find it brilliant for dividing

    you guys are arguing here about a bit.


My even more naive answer is that I neved had occasion to use it, as I
think I quit C++ before this existed in Boost (but I may be wrong). I
read the docs for multi-index once or twice, though. Did you use it
recently?

Yep, used it about a half an year ago last time. For example, for defining nice OrderedMap with only a pair lines of code :) Liked idea a lot and thought that similar stuff in D2 could be even better, getting rid of C++ template syntax.

Hey, I was re-reading Boost::MPL, Fusion and Graph recently and was
thinking that it's be quite easier to do that in D.

I think same, don't no D so good yet, though.

Interestingly, on Boost 1.43 (may 6th):


      Major Updates

    * Range <http://www.boost.org/libs/range/index.html>: Boost.Range
      has undergone extensive updates that it include all of the
      features from the recently reviewed Boost.RangeEx, from Neil Groves.
          o Range-based version of the full STL iterator based algorithms.
          o Range adaptors which can be combined with range-based
            algorithms for unprecedented expressiveness and efficiency.
          o New functions: irange, istream_range, join, combine.

Man, I didn't know they had it.

Boost::Range is hanging there for quite a long time - more than 5 years, AFAIK.
