Re: boost::variant and VC debugger

Basically what i did was something on the lines:

typedef boost::variant<long, std::string> GcVariant;

class GcString: public boost::static_visitor<string>{
public:
    string operator()(long i) const {
        stringstream istr;
        istr << i;
        return istr.str();
    }

    string operator()( const string& i) const {
        return i;
    }
};

const char* SV( const GcVariant& p_variant) {
    static string outputString;
    outputString = boost::apply_visitor( GcString(), p_variant );
    return outputString.c_str();
}

And if in the code i defined say:
GcVariant u;
u = "This is a string";
u = 234;
I can use the command window and type SV(u) and see the values "This is
a string" and "234".
