Re: [Boost-users] boost::variant with boost::signals leads to Internal Compiler Error with MSDEV 7.1

Hi

Environment: MS 7.1 compile with MS implementation of STL Boost 1.32.0

Summary:

I get an internal compiler error using boost::variant as a parameter of a boost::signal compiling with MSDEV 7.1, but not with gcc3.3/3.4 or MinGW (3.5).

Does anyone knows a workaround other than not using boost::signals?

Details

Using a signal with a variant of 2 simple classes (see code snippet) leads to an internal compiler error C1001. Using pragma command to turn optimisation off as Suggested by the compiler does not change a thing

Does anyone knows a workaround?

Could you get away with using a boost::function instead of a signal (i.e. do you *really* need multi-casting, connection management etc?). BTW - like Victor, your fragment doesn't ICE with my VC7.1 (version 13.10.3077) and Boost 1.32.0... Stuart Dootson
