Not "expert" input, but the table under Specific Warnings and
Suggested Actions :: Microsoft is barely readable for me (Firefox
3.6.8). Can't the columns in row i have the same width as the columns
in row j for all i,j?
On the issue of a casting between signed and unsigned types (error
4244 in VC), I am a bit concerned I am missing something. Why is there
significant discussion about choosing which cast to make the warning
go away? I am labouring under the impression that boost::numeric_cast
was invented to do those conversions?
