In the case of a template class like SafeInt<T>, do you think the binary
operator+, operator-, etc., should be friend functions, defined inside
the class declaration, or template functions?
Note that I've just posted a slightly related ticket on David LeBlanc's
SafeInt: "Potential performance gain from non-member operator+"
http://safeint.codeplex.com/WorkItem/View.aspx?WorkItemId=7910
BTW, I do think it would be great to have such a library in Boost.
Kind regards, Niels
