Hi, Naming the getters with the same name as the type chrono::year year() const; results in a lot of error with gcc <= 4.8.0 ../../../boost/chrono/date/ymd_date.hpp:267:7: erreur: declaration of ‘boost::chrono::year boost::chrono::ymd_date::year() const’ [-fpermissive] ../../../boost/chrono/date/year.hpp:36:11: error: changes meaning of ‘year’ from ‘class boost::chrono::year’ [-fpermissive] When I add -fpermissive I get yet the warning ../../../boost/chrono/date/year.hpp:36:11: attention : changes meaning of ‘year’ from ‘class boost::chrono::year’ [-fpermissive] Do someone how to get ride of this warning/spam? In addition, no way to make it working with gcc-4.2.1. No issue with clang-3.1, 3.2. Not checked with msvc. Is this a bug on gcc? Best, Vicente
