This happens with gcc 4.3.1 on openSuSE 11.0 and gcc 4.4.1 on 11.2. I'm attaching a modified version of the test_diamond.cpp program from the serialization library. The base class now contains an abstract method, the final class in the example has been renamed to intermediate and a new final class is derived directly from intermediate. The abstract method is implemented in the intermediate class resulting in a compiler error[[BR]] /usr/local/boost-r58233/include/boost/type_traits/is_virtual_base_of.hpp:56: error: no unique final overrider for ‘virtual void base::method1()’ in ‘boost::detail::is_virtual_base_of_impl >::X’[[BR]] The method looks to be unique to me. If the method is implemented in final rather than intermediate then the problem doesn't occur." Bugs closed Boost 1.42.0 type_traits Boost 1.41.0 Problem wontfix manfred.doudar@…
