When you run the sample: {{{ using namespace boost::multi_index; typedef multi_index_container< std::string, indexed_by< random_access<> > > text_container; int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { text_container tc; tc.sort(); return 0; } }}} the call to std::copy on line 190 of rnd_index_ops.hpp passes NULL as the third parameter (&*buf). The VC10 version of copy asserts if the 3rd param is NULL, causing the failure." Bugs closed Boost 1.40.0 multi_index Boost 1.38.0 Problem fixed
