Hello Eric, What's the point of make_default in this class? I've a class I want to make a container, but because of its invariants, make_default without ...
Hai Eric, In DS_TRAVERSABLE I found this comment: -- Some Eiffel compilers check invariants even when the -- execution of the creation procedure is not...
... Just curious: what sort of invariant that is? The only thing I can think of is a container that cannot be empty (that could make sense). -- ...
