[tim@…]

the property_tree xml parser doesn't seem to compile on gcc ... neither on gcc-4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 ... i was using the latest svn checkout ...

patch for xml_parser_read_rapidxml.hpp

[Oliver]

Replying to marshall: Hi, I've added an patch. It adds the template keyword to the member function parse of xml_document<>. Now it compiles with gcc-4.2. Probably the same modification is required on other code pieces - I don't know. so long, Oliver

[Sebastian Redl]

Fixed already.
