  \brief  The file contains meta-function related to the arrangement package.
  Specifically, it contains the meta-function is_arrangement_2 that determines
  whether a given type is an arrangement.

// The current implementation is not general. The following section describes
// the general solution that needs volunteers that wants to learn more generic
// programming.
// We detect "arrangements" by checking if they define types as specified and
// functions as specified. (For example, if they contain a Geometry_traits_2
// type.
//
// 1) Write a meta-function that detects whether a type T has a nested type.
//    Consult Modern C++ Design Chapter 2.7. should look something like:
//
// template <class T>
// class does_contain_Geometry_traits_2
// {
//   typedef char        True;
//   class False { char dummy[2]; };

//   True Test(typename T::Geometry_traits_2);
//   False Test(...);
//   [Continue code]
// public:
  // [Continue code]
// };
//
// 2) Make this class a macro.
// 3) Can you detect functions in a class T (consult boost::type_traits.
// 4) Use boost::mpl to have is_arrangement_2 derive from the correct type
//    (true_type or false_type) according to the meta-functions you wrote.
// 5) Optional: Check boost type_traits for platform-specific problems and
//    solutions.


// In the meanwhile we use a default implementation.
