13366,lexical_cast throws std::bad_cast,amitkumar.sachan@…,Antony Polukhin,"lexical_cast always throws std::bad_cast exception while converting values of type  std::basic_string<char, ci_char_traits>  (where ci_char_traits is derived from std::char_traits<char>) to double on Linux. It works on windows though(i.e. throws boost::bad_lexcial_cast exception for bad values, and returns double for valid values). It also works on Linux with boost 1.57. I noticed there has been a change in lexical_cast implementation that causes this issue now. std::bad_cast exception is thrown here because locale associated with the stream does not has std::num_get<char, std::istreambuf_iterator<char, ci_char_traits> > > facet as shown in the stack trace below. It works with std::string (std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>) >  ) because locale has std::num_get<char, std::istreambuf_iterator<char, std::char_traits<char>> > facet.
