https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3427 <p> The MS header file excpt.h has a </p> <pre class="wiki"> #define exception_code _exception_code </pre><p> which leads to problems if not consistently included. </p> <p> The bottom line is, that archive_exception.cpp needs to be compiled with exactly the same windows headers included (excpt.h gets included by windows.h) as any sources including archive_exception.hpp, which is generally not possible to ensure. </p> <p> The only fail-proof way I could see is to always have </p> <pre class="wiki"> #if defined(BOOST_WINDOWS) #include &lt;excpt.h&gt; #endif </pre><p> inside archive_exception.hpp, globally mapping exception_code to _exception_code.
