Hi, among the support facilities required by C++0x there is:
////////////////// 20.9.9.1 addressof [specialized.addressof] template <class T> T* addressof(T& r); 1 Returns: the actual address of the object or function referenced by r, even in the presence of an overloaded operator&. Throws: nothing. ////////////////// the only implementation I briefly skimmed, part of boost, involves an ugly series of reinterpret_cast, which, by the way, I'm not even sure is completely safe vs aliasing, in all the possible circumstances. Thus, I'm wondering if we want a "builtin" facility in the C++ front-end for this too, additionally to those strictly required for implementing <type_traits>, or maybe we can put to use existing gcc extensions... Again, directions / help welcome (at least this time the ABI is safe ;) Thanks in advance, Paolo.
