https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6781 <p> The reference docs make no statement about the validity of empty tuples or arrays. Only one place makes an implication: “Sequences are data structures that merge the properties of both lists and tuples with the exception that a seq cannot be empty.” - the implication being that lists and tuples (and thus by extension arrays) _can_ be empty. </p> <p> The docs should mention that empty tuples/arrays are not supported and also for what reason they are not supported. </p> <p> Due to a change of behavior along with release 1.49 as stated in <a class="closed ticket" href="https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6760" title="#6760: Bugs: PUSH_BACK/_FRONT on empty array broken (closed: invalid)">#6760</a> I'm convinced a statement is overdue. </p> en-us /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6781 Trac 1.4.3 Edward Diener Sun, 17 May 2015 04:55:09 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6781#comment:3 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6781#comment:3 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">new</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">closed</span> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">fixed</span> </li> </ul> Ticket
