I am running boost 1.33.1 with BDS 4.0, the Borland compiler. I upgraded to BDS Update pack 2 (released 2006/04/17) yesterday, and the two following lines/files failed to compile:

#include #include

The code compiled without problems with Update 1. Have anyone else seen this? I'm no expert on compiler quirks, but I know that there are a few workarounds for the BCC compiler in boost. Maybe something has been changed.

Just a long shot, but has the compiler version number changed? It may be that some workarounds need to be re-enabled.

BTW it would help if you could post error messages.

Thanks for the tip, John. Yes, the compiler version has changed from 5.8.1 to 5.8.2, as far as I can see. A search for "581" in the boost source gave a few hits of the type #if (__BORLANDC__ <= 0x581) ... BOOST_WORKAROUND(__BORLANDC__, <= 0x581) I changed them to #if (__BORLANDC__ <= 0x582) ... BOOST_WORKAROUND(__BORLANDC__, <= 0x582) and my entire project compiled! I didnt get my project to run, though. I will fix this on monday, but I dont think it has anything to do with boost. What do I do in order to get this fix into the next boost revision? -Christian
