# Scrap Your Boilerplate Plus Plus (sybpp)

Project details [here](http://www.github.com/ct-clmsn/sybpp/).

This project implements functionality from `Scrap Your Boilerplate: A Practical Design Pattern for Generic Programming`, Lammel, Peyton-Jones, 2003.

The paper can be found [here](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/wp-content/uploads/2003/01/hmap.pdf).

`Scrap Your Boilerplate` creates generic traversals over data types. Users identify a target type and provide a function that accepts

the identified type as an input parameter. `sybpp` computes, at compile-time, the generic traversal code. This removes the need for

users to implement "boilerplate" data structure traversal code (a visitor pattern) in order apply a function.

### Notes

Users are required to wrap data types `sybpp` encounters with the `BOOST_FUSION_ADAPT_STRUCT` macro. Review the `demo.cpp` file for

code examples.
