## Function make_expr

boost::proto::make_expr — Construct an expression of the requested tag type with a domain and with the specified arguments as children.

## Synopsis

    // In header: <boost/proto/make_expr.hpp>

    template<typename Tag, typename... A>
      typename proto::result_of::make_expr<Tag, A const...>::type const
      make_expr(A const &... a);
    template<typename Tag, typename Domain, typename... A>
      typename proto::result_of::make_expr<Tag, Domain, A const...>::type const
      make_expr(A const &... a);

## Description

This function template may be invoked either with or without specifying a `Domain` template parameter. If no domain is specified, the domain is deduced by examining in order the domains of the given arguments and taking the first that is not ``proto::default_domain``, if any such domain exists, or ``proto::default_domain`` otherwise.

Let ``WRAP`(x)` be defined such that:

- If `x` is a `boost::reference_wrapper<>`, ``WRAP`(x)` is equivalent to ``proto::as_child`<Domain>(x.get())`.

- Otherwise, ``WRAP`(x)` is equivalent to ``proto::as_expr`<Domain>(x)`.

Let ``MAKE`<Tag>(a...)` be defined as ``proto::expr`<Tag, `proto::listN`<A...> >::make(a...)` where `Ax` is the type of `ax`.

Returns: | `Domain()(`MAKE`<Tag>(`WRAP`(a)...))`.
