The generic fusion sequence convert to a deque fails with a compiler error

[Edward Diener]

The following code, as deque_convert.cpp, which uses the generic boost::fusion::convert to convert to a boost::fusion::deque, fails with a compiler error:

#include <boost/detail/lightweight_test.hpp> #include <boost/fusion/include/deque.hpp> #include <boost/fusion/include/make_deque.hpp> #include <boost/fusion/include/make_vector.hpp> #include <boost/fusion/sequence/intrinsic/at_c.hpp> #include <boost/fusion/sequence/convert.hpp> #include <string>

int main() { boost::fusion::deque<int, std::string> t = boost::fusion::convert<boost::fusion::deque_tag>(boost::fusion::make_vector(123, "Hola!!!")); Line 13 boost::fusion::deque<int, std::string> t = boost::fusion::convert<boost::fusion::deque_tag>(boost::fusion::make_deque(123, "Hola!!!")); Line 14 BOOST_TEST(boost::fusion::at_c<0>(t) == 123); BOOST_TEST(boost::fusion::at_c<1>(t) == "Hola!!!"); return boost::report_errors(); }

Commenting out line 13 and uncommenting line 14 produces the same error. I do not believe any conversion to a boost::fusion::deque, using the generic boost::fusion::convert functionality, will work.

I discovered this bug testing out a PR for the iterator library where a suggested change has been implemented so that the zip_iterator in the iterator library can use fusion sequences, and through the fusion adapter, std::tuple, as the tuple type for the tupleiterator of a zip_iterator.
