The docs read as: "Currently tuple is basically a synonym for vector, although this may be changed in future releases of fusion. "

That should be understood as "Currently fusion::tuple is basically a synonym for fusion::vector, although this may be changed in future releases of fusion. "

I believe this claim holds. You can use fusion::tuple and fusion::vector interchangeably. The claim does not imply that boost::tuple is a synonym for fusion::vector as your patch requires. I tried your code and the compiler barfs when it gets to the point where it expects *invalid* expressions like Tuple::head_type. If the code adheres to only the API of TR1::tuple and/or fusion::vector, then all is well.

One of us is very confused. The errors I saw had to do with not being able to convert vector2<int, double const> to tuple<int&, double const&>.

I am getting zip_iterator.hpp(118) : error C2039: 'head_type' : is not a member of 'boost::fusion::tuple<T0,T1>'. Testing SVN trunk. What am I missing? Should I be testing release branch instead?

I'm getting the same error as Joel with both the trunk and release branches as of revision 60449.

Dave, unless you can provide more details, I'm going to close this.

The last comment was from me, BTW.

status new → closed

I think I understood this to mean that boost::tuple was a synonym for fusion::vector. What is required in order to get zip_iterator to work with fusion tuples and boost tuples?

Joel de Guzman — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 23:44:41 GMT

Well, either just stick to std::tuple interface or if that is too limiting, use fusion::vector. I'll see if I can get a crack at it.

Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #3684: tuple not really a synonym for vector?
