Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #12466: property_tree::string_path<StringT, TranslatorT>'s operator / won't accept StringT as an argument

Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #12466: property_tree::string_path<StringT, TranslatorT>'s operator / won't accept StringT as an argument https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/12466 A very simple example of the problem can be seen with this code: <div class="wiki-code"><div class="code"><pre>boost::property_tree::path_of<std::string>::type path("parent"); std::string component("child"); path / component; </pre></div></div> This produces an error of "no match for operator/". I have tested this on G++ 6.2.0, VS 14 Update 3, and Apple's clang-800.0.38, and they all produce roughly the same error. This issue can be worked around by replacing the third line with <code>path / boost::property_tree::path_of<std::string>::type(component)</code> or <code>path / component.c_str();</code>, as those types are both explicitly overloaded. Adding an additional overload for the String type will fix this issue. en-us Boost C++ Libraries /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/12466 Trac 1.4.3
