I'm running into a problem with the type erasure library when trying to declare a member called 'data', e.g.

<snip>

This conflicts with the private member variable called 'data' in the any class. SomeClass does compile, but attempting to call the data() does not compile due to the conflict, with the error message being 'cannot access private member ... ' .

I tried to avoid this situation by mangling private member names, but I obviously forgot about this one (table too).

The simplest workaround until I fix this is to use boost::type_erasure::call(has_data(), x) instead of x.data().

Thanks Steven. Cheers Nigel
