Dave, aC++ didn't like it. This is CR JAGaf33512 -- aC++ tries to instantiate template member functions even if it's unused. Pls. see attachment. I've addressed the problems you mention below. Although I don't know what you mean by a patch?? Let me know if it's good enough for check in. Thanks for being patient with me, I'm a stone-age C++ programmer who just got transported into the 21st century and I'm still trying to get my feet wet. It's a lot of material to absorb in a short time.

Dave, See attachment. Thanks!

Thank you! There are a number of problems with it: 1. It's not a patch as requested (nit; it was probably easier for me to handle than a patch would've been) 2. It defines an implementation detail function in the boost:: namespace 3. It uses ALL_CAPS identifiers for non-macro names (TR1, TR2) Instead of fixing the patch I used a simpler static assertion that should only fail to work on compilers that don't support is_convertible (CWPro7 and earlier), which I've already dropped support for IIRC. Let me know if aCC becomes happy. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
