  // genericTransformTuple stuff
  //

  // genericTransformTuple() needs to be overloaded for each tuple size (we
  // limit ourselves to tuple_size <= 10 here).  For a given tuple size it
  // needs to be overloaded for all combinations of const and non-const
  // argument references.  (On the one hand, we want to allow modifyable
  // arguments, so const references alone are not sufficient.  On the other
  // hand, we also want to allow rvalues (literals) as argument, which do not
  // bind to non-const references.)
  //
  // We can half the number of specializations required by introducing a
  // function genericTransformTupleBackend(), which is overloaded for each
  // tuple size and for const and non-const tuple arguments; the functor
  // argument is always given as as (non-const) reference.  When
  // genericTransformTupleBackend() is called, the type of the Functor template
  // parameter is the deduced as either "SomeType" or "const SomeType",
  // depending on whether the function argument is a non-const or a const
  // lvalue of type "SomeType".  As explained above, this does not work for
  // rvalues (i.e. literals).
  //
  // To make it work for literals of functors as well, we wrap the call to
  // genericTransformTupleBackend() in a function genericTransformTuple().
  // genericTransformTuple() needs to be overloaded for non-const and const
  // tuples and functors -- 4 overloads only.  Inside genericTransformTuple()
  // the functor is an lvalue no matter whether the argument was an lvalue or
  // an rvalue.  There is no need need to overload genericTransformTuple() for
  // all tuple sizes -- this is done by the underlying
  // genericTransformTupleBackend().

  // genericTransformTupleBackend() is an implementation detail -- hide it
  // from Doxygen

   * \tparam An Type of extra arguments to pass to \c TE<T>::apply().  \c void
   *            means "no argument".  Only trailing arguments may be void.
   *
   * This class stores references to a number of arguments it receives in the
   * constructor.  Later, its function call operator \c operator() may be
   * called with a parameter \c t of type \c T.  \c operator() will then call
   * the static method \c TE<T>::apply(t,args...), where \c args... is the
   * sequence of arguments the object was constructed with.  \c operator()
   * will convert the result to type \c TE<T>::Type and return it.
   *
   * \c TE should be an extended version of the \c TypeEvaluator class
   * template parameter of ForEachType, for instance:
   * \code
   * template <class T>
   * struct TypeEvaluator {
   *   typedef T* Type;
   *   static Type apply(T& t, void* a0) {
   *     return t ? &t : static_cast<T*>(a0);
   *   }
   * };
   * \endcode
   * This example is for a TransformTupleFunctor with one argument, i.e. \c
   * A0!=void and all other \c An=void.  For the type transformation, it will
   * transform a value of some type T into a pointer to T.  For the value
   * transformation, it will take a reference to a value of type T and return
   * the pointer to that value, unless the value evaluates to false in boolean
   * context.  If the value evaluates to false, it will instead return the
   * pointer from the extra argument.

   * This function is overloaded for any number of extra arguments, up to an

   *
   * The \c TypeEvaluator class template should be suitable as the \c TE
   * template argument for TransformTupleFunctor.  It has the following form
   * (an extension of the \c TypeEvaluator template argument of ForEachType):
   * \code
   * template <class T>
   * struct TypeEvaluator {
   *   typedef UserDefined Type;
   *
   *   template<class A0, class A1, class A2, class A3, class A4, class A5,

   *                     A6& a6, A7& a7, A8& a8, A9& a9);
   * };
   * \endcode
   * For any given element type \c T of the tuple, the TypeEvaluator template
   * class should provide a member typedef \c Type which determines the type
   * of the transformed value and a static function \c apply(), taking the
   * value of the tuple element \c t and the extra arguments given to
   * transformTuple().  The signature of \c apply() does not have to match the
   * one given above exactly, as long as it can be called that way.
   *
   * \note Since transformTuple() takes non-const references to the extra
   *       arguments, it will only bind to lvalue extra arguments, unless you
   *       specify the corresponding template parameter as \c const \c
   *       SomeType.  Specifically this means that you cannot simply use
   *       literals or function return values as extra arguments. Providing
   *       overloads for all possible combinations of rvalue and lvalue extra
   *       arguments would result in \f$2^{n+1}-1\f$ overloads where \f$n\f$
   *       is the implementation defined limit in the number of extra
   *       arguments.
   *
   * \sa genericTransforTuple(), ForEachType, AddRefTypeEvaluator, and
