Using functional languages to facilitate C++ metaprogramming
WGP '12: Proceedings of the 8th ACM SIGPLAN workshop on Generic programming

Template and Preprocessor Metaprogramming are both well-known in the C++ community to have much in common with Functional Programming (FP). Recently, very few research threads on underpinning these commonalities have emerged to empower cross-development ...
