id summary reporter owner description type status milestone component version severity resolution keywords cc 12466 property_tree::string_path's operator / won't accept StringT as an argument LRFLEW Sebastian Redl "A very simple example of the problem can be seen with this code: {{{#!C++ boost::property_tree::path_of::type path(""parent""); std::string component(""child""); path / component; }}} 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 `path / boost::property_tree::path_of::type(component)` or `path / component.c_str();`, as those types are both explicitly overloaded. Adding an additional overload for the String type will fix this issue." Bugs new To Be Determined property_tree Boost 1.61.0 Problem
