When included <boost\thread.hpp>, boost::move uses implemented in boost\thread\detail\move.hpp instead of boost\move\utility_core.hpp

[Mariano Quesada <mquesada@…>]

Hello,

Please see the attached file. If fails to build when header file "boost\thread.hpp" is included. Apparently when is not include "::boost:move" is implemented by "boost\move\utility_core.hpp" but when is included then is implemented by "boost\thread\detail\move.hpp".

In both header files there is a boost::move function and it looks like it selects the wrong one. Probably depends on the compiler because this is happening in VS2017 but not in VS2013.

Is there any workaround besides the fix?

Thank you for your help.

Please, could you report the compiler error?

Thank your for your help. I have attached a file with the compiler error report.

I believe the issue is that before version 3, Boost.Thread defined itself boost::move.

You need to define

#define BOOST_THREAD_VERSION 3

or higher when you include boost/thread.hpp and want to be compatible with Boost.Move.

Sorry, but Boost.Thread defined boost::move before it was defined by Boost.Move.
