6021,Cannot compile code to compute convex hull of multipoint geometry,Crispin Cooper <cooperch@…>,Barend Gehrels,"Hello once again...

Attached is a program to compute the convex hull of a multipoint geometry.  Compilation fails (msvc).  

Compilation works if either a polygon is used instead of a multipoint, or the convex_hull function is not called.

Compiler output pasted below.

Many thanks for developing this useful library, I hope this is me failing to use it correctly rather than problems your end!
