Re: [Boost-users] using boost::format with STLPort

Alexey Bakhvalov a écrit :

Hello,

I have a problem when I try to include "boost/format.hpp" from Boost 1.32 in a project that uses STLPort library.

I am using MSVC 7.1 and the compiler prints the following error:

\boost\format\format_implementation.hpp(216) : error C2244: 'boost::basic_format::size' : unable to match function definition to an existing declaration

I just finished installing VStudio.net 2003 (which is 7.1, I believe), and this definitely looks like a bug in visual studio. The following sample exhibits the same behaviour template<class T> struct A { typedef T* some_type; }; template<class T> struct B { typedef typename A<T>::some_type le_type; le_type some_f(); }; template<class T> typename B<T>::le_type B<T>::some_f() { le_type x; return x; } Is it a known bug ? Replacing B<T>::le_type with A<T>::some_type when defining B<T>::some_f() seem to be a work around. -- Samuel
