<p>
The <span class="bold"><strong>icl</strong></span> provides the possibility of customizing
user defined interval class templates and class types with static interval
borders to be used with interval containers.
</p>
<p>
There is a template <code class="computeroutput"><a class="link" href="../boost/icl/interval_traits.html" title="Struct template interval_traits">interval_traits</a></code>,
that has to be instatiated for the user defined interval type, in order to
provide associated types and basic functions. Bound types of the interval
are assigned by specializing the template <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">interval_bound_type</span></code>.
