Count of parameters in a parameter pack? Is there a C++0x std lib function for this?

Viewed 15219

I was just wondering if there was anything in the C++0x std lib already available to count the number of parameters in a parameter pack? I'd like to get rid of the field_count in the code below. I know I can build my own counter, but it just seems like this would be an obvious thing to include in the C++0x std lib, and I wanted to be sure it wasn't already there :) Home-grown counter implementations are most welcome too.

template<const int field_count, typename... Args> struct Entity {
    const tuple<Args...> data;
    const array<const char*, field_count> source_names;

    Entity() : data() {
    }
};
