Method boost::random::uniform_int::operator()(engine, value) is missing
| Reported by: | Owned by: | Marshall Clow | |

| Milestone: | Boost 1.38.0 | Component: | random |
| Version: | Boost 1.34.1 | Severity: | Problem |

Description
boost::random::variate_generator::operator()(T value) seems to offer the ability to use the variate_generator with std::random_shuffle(). However, it relies on the distribution used providing a method along the lines of:
template <EngineT, ValueT> ValueT operator()(EngineT, ValueT);
According to the Boost.Random documentation this is provided by the uniform_int distribution but the actual implementation of uniform_int has no such method.

Added fix for this problem. This was built and tested using gcc-4.1.2 on Gentoo Linux (32-Bit).

The milestone for this is 1.36.0 but it seems that was missed - is this likely to be incorporated in to a future release soon? Can I apply the patch I contributed to trunk myself?

Committed the patch as revision 50312. I'll watch the test results for a while, and then if they're good, merge to release.
