Re: [libxml++] unicode support

Hi,

As far as the orientation the thread took, I'll just say that I quite agree 
with Murray, but don't want to feed the troll.

As far as this particular point, what I personnaly do with templated class is 
that I still separate declaration and implementation into a .h and a .cc/.cpp 
file.
Then I include the .cc/.cpp in the .h file so the templated implementation is 
still visible by user code.
This make header much more clean and readable, and if one day we have the 
chance to have a c++ compiler which support the 'export' keyword, then 
adaptation will be as easy as comment 1 line of code.

This is to say that even if the unicode compliance of libxml++ means fully 
templated classes, this won't mean .cc files suppression, and that a patch is 
more than welcome...

Best regards,

Christophe
