array test clashes with C++0x

[Chris Jefferson]

Now c++0x has an <array> header, boost::array and std::array can clash.

This happens in one array test. I attach a tiny patch that fixes it. We could also remove 'using namespace std', but that requires changing more lines.

Patch to libs/array/test/array2.cpp

I don't mind patching this - but I don't understand why you're getting the errors.

The std::array stuff for C++0x is all in the header <array>, which is not included by array2.

Can you tell me how it is getting included on your system? (and what your system is)

[Chris Jefferson]

I'm using clang with libc++, in C++0x mode. A very unusual and new combination!

The include system seems to go like:

<utility> includes pair, which needs tuple-like access to pair (tuple_size, tuple_element). This pulls in a header that defines the tuple-like access for pair, tuple and array all in one go.

(In [69291]) qualify array to avoid conflict with std::array; Refs #5233

Why was this closed? And by whom?

I was keeping this open because the fix had not been merged to the release branch.
