Changeset 11002 for code/branches/cpp11_v2/src/libraries/util/MultiType.h

Timestamp:

Dec 30, 2015, 9:13:14 PM (8 years ago)

Author:

Message:

MultiType now supports strongly typed enum classes. Their values are cast to the underlying type.
MultiType now also uses additional static_asserts to ensure that it is only used with supported values.
