Close, but I think what would be better is to combine this with Brian's original thought. So in Brian's shared pointer header, he has basically his original stuff - #if ATS_USE_TR1 # include <tr1/memory> #else # include <memory> #endif namespace atscppapi { #if ATS_USE_TR1 using std::shared_ptr; #else using std::tr1::shared_ptr; #endif what we do is use a variant of Leif's suggestion and make this a generated file. The original has something lke # if ! defined(ATS_USE_TR1) # define ATS_USE_TR1 @TS_USE_TR1@ # endif This way we get the configure time value as the default but if the plugin writer really wants control he can -D ATS_USE_TR1 to force a a different result. This could go in a common include or directly in the shared_ptr header. It depends on whether Brian thinks we will have more situations like this.
