Loki is a ("the"?) C++ library of generic programming techniques, containing flexible implementations of common design patterns and idioms. It is an essential library for modern C++ programming and exposes many cool features of the language. . The code accompanies the (non-free) book, _Modern C++ Design_ (Alexandrescu, 2001), which goes into depth on the design of the library. . This package contains the header files and static libraries needed to build programs that use loki. . Homepage: http://loki-lib.sourceforge.net/
