MSVC 12: compiler error in boost/type_traits/common_type.hpp(42)

Reported by: sk.aquileia@… Owned by: John Maddock
Milestone: Component: type_traits
Version: Boost 1.60.0 Severity: Problem
Keywords: Cc:

Description

Visual Studio 2013 fails to build Boost 1.60, whereas 1.58 is built correctly. When built with Visual Studio 2008, 1.60 doesn't show this issue.

Command line:

.\b2 --with-thread --toolset=msvc-12.0

error:

.\boost/type_traits/common_type.hpp(42) : fatal error C1001: Interner Compilerfehler.
(Compilerdatei 'msc1.cpp', Zeile 1325)

This regression was likely introduced in commit Make common_type SFINAE-friendly, add tests
https://github.com/boostorg/type_traits/commit/9fd4ee06b2

I'm unable to reproduce: the tests for both chrono and type_traits all build OK for me (other than some unrelated and expected type_traits failures) with msvc-10,11,12 and 14 and both Git develop and 1.60 release. This is with fully up to date / patched versions of Visual Studio though: is it possible your vc12 install is not patched with the latest updates?

Milestone: To Be Determined

It was indeed fixed by Update 5, sorry that I didn't check for patches before reporting it - I had just assumed Microsoft wouldn't publish major patches 2 years after release.

I hit the same issue with boost-1.60; I'm on "Update 3 of Visual Studio 2013 for Windows Desktop". As I had boost-1.55 downloaded, and didn't need the latest version, I've switched to using that, and the problem has gone away.

Don't you guys ever run Microsoft update? Seriously, update your VC12 install to update 5 and the issue goes away.
