This is considered an advantage over dumping everything in -the global namespace, as then name look-up can be explicitly enabled or -disabled as above, symbols are consistently mangled without repetitive -naming prefixes or macros, etc. -</p><p>For instance, consider a project that defines most of its classes in <code class="code">namespace gtk</code>. It is possible to - adapt <code class="code">namespace gtk</code> to <code class="code">namespace std</code> by using a C++-feature called - <span class="emphasis"><em>namespace composition</em></span>. This is what happens if - a <span class="emphasis"><em>using</em></span>-declaration is put into a - namespace-definition: the imported symbol(s) gets imported into the - currently active namespace(s). For example: -</p><pre class="programlisting"> -namespace gtk -{ - using std::string; - using std::tr1::array; - - class Window { ... }; -} -</pre><p> - In this example, <code class="code">std::string</code> gets imported into - <code class="code">namespace gtk</code>. The result is that use of - <code class="code">std::string</code> inside namespace gtk can just use <code class="code">string</code>, without the explicit qualification. - As an added bonus, - <code class="code">std::string</code> does not get imported into - the global namespace. Additionally, a more elaborate arrangement can be made for backwards compatibility and portability, whereby the - <code class="code">using</code>-declarations can wrapped in macros that - are set based on autoconf-tests to either "" or i.e. <code class="code">using - std::string;</code> (depending on whether the system has - libstdc++ in <code class="code">std::</code> or not).
