Well, maybe I rushed into conclusions too fast. Sorry. I just assumed that
the CRT was what you tried to use but your compiler didn't let you, as I
took a _very_quick_ look at your code and was the only thing I could remeber
that needed a littel more template support from the compiler to avoid that
kind of repetition you avoided with those macros (remembering
http://www.cuj.com/experts/1906/langer.htm?topic=experts). But looking
closely, maybe it doesn't apply in this case.
If it wasn't the CRT, what else did you experiment to replace the macros
then?
