Subject: Re: [std-proposals] Feature test macro for variant<bool, string> taking const char* fix?
From: Emile Cormier (emile.cormier.jr_at_[hidden])

I do, Barry. Something like this (not tested):

struct parse_event
{
    template <typename T>
    parse_event(T&& value) : token(std::forward<T>(value)) {}

#ifndef VARIANT_SAFELY_TAKES_CHAR_POINTER
    // Workaround
    parse_event(const char* s) : token(std::string(s)) {}
#endif

    std::variant<bool, int, std::string> token;
};

The idea is to disable the workaround code when the C++ library
implementation has the P0608/P1957 fixes.
