Recent Changes

The most recent changes to Boost.Extension, in preparation for this library's submission to Boost for review:

Deprecation of factory_map in favor of type_map (tutorials to come).
All reflection documentation will be contained within the Extension docs. During review, or perhaps shortly before, it will be determined whether or not these should be two separate libraries, and if so, where the split should occur - since they share significant functionality.
The adaptable_factory class has been added to facilitate calling factories when the parameters of the constructor are unknown.
The addition of the source code for a runtime compilation example. This involves compiling a shared library at runtime, and calling code from it. Examples will come soon.

The latest updates in this documentation are:

The other sections in the documentation should be updated over the next few weeks, in preparation for review.
