3223,number  of dimensions as static constant,fhess,Ronald Garcia,"multi_array and friends should provide the number of dimensions as a static member constant, so it is available at compile time and can be used in generic programming.  I assume the num_dimensions() non-static member function was put in the design with the idea that the number of dimensions of a multi_array object might be dynamically changed.  But since the multi array concept and classes doen't support changing the number of dimensions, it doesn't provide anything useful over a static constant.",Feature Requests,new,Boost 1.40.0,multi_array,Boost 1.39.0,Problem,,,
