Problem compiling :/

[nobody]

Hi :)

I've some problems compiling code that use
\boost\iterator\transform_iterator.hpp (under VC++ 7 -
VS2K2) :

transform_iterator.hpp(45) : error C2825 :
'UnaryFunction::result_type': cannot form a qualified name

transform_iterator.hpp(45) : error C2039: 'result_type'
: is not a member of 'operator``global namespace'''

transform_iterator.hpp(45) : fatal error C1507 :
previous user errors and subsequent error recovery halt
further compilation

Thanks in advance :)

The following compiles under Visual C++ .Net with "Language
Extensions" enabled, but it fails otherwise:

#include <boost/token_iterator.hpp>
int main()
{
    return 0;
}

The received errors are:

d:\Programming\boost\boost\detail\iterator.hpp(174) : error
C2061: syntax error : identifier 'value_type'

d:\Programming\boost\boost\mpl\aux_\preprocessed\msvc70\or.hpp(27)
: error C2970: 'boost::mpl::aux::or_impl' : template
argument 'C_' : invalid use of non-integral-constant static
variable 'value' as non-type argument
(and 4 more similar to the last one)

How can I fix this? Any help will be appreciated.

I'm assigning this to John Bandela, the token iterator author, in case he wants to take responsibility for it.  However, it looks very much like a compiler bug (vc7 is rife with them) and if I were John I'd probably close it as "won't fix" because the compiler is two versions out-of-date and finding a workaround is likely to be difficult.

The test file "simple_example_5.cpp" for the tokenizer library includes this file, and passes the regression tests on both VS 7.1, and 8.0.

Marking as fixed.
