Question

Is there a non-boost way to create a function with variable arguments? I know the argument types number of arguments and they are usually less then 5, all of the same type.

I need to know if there is a way without supplying the argument count or ending the param list with null.

Answer 1

For up to 5 arguments all of the same type, simple overloads can do the trick.

For more generality, supporting any number of arguments of the same type, just pass a collection such as a std::vector.

For a C++03 technique to build such a collection on the fly in each call, see my other answer; for C++11, if you do not need to support Visual C++ you can use curly braces initializer lists as actual arguments.
