Boost Asio error with (unreleased) gcc 4.7 - monotonic / steady clock

[ramon.casellas@…]

Dear Chris,

I'm aware gcc 4.7 is not released yet, however I'm using it to test some c++11 features. Unfortunately Boost Asio fails to compile due to the name change monotonic_clock to steady_clock, I am reporting it "early" :) 4.6.2

#ifdef _GLIBCXX_USE_CLOCK_MONOTONIC
    /// monotonic_clock
    struct monotonic_clock

4.7 snapshot

#ifdef _GLIBCXX_USE_CLOCK_MONOTONIC
    /// steady_clock
    struct steady_clock
    {

compiling:

Thanks in advance and thanks for your work with boost asio R.

Fix applied to trunk in changeset [78738].

[chris_kohlhoff]

(In [78740]) Merge from trunk:

• Add support for g++ 4.7 when compiling in C++11 mode. Update revision history. Fixes #6620.

• Use the thread's private_op_queue for handlers returned by the reactor task. This fixes a problem where signal_set handlers are not being called when the io_service's concurrency hint is set to 1. Fixes #6657.

i don't think this is fixed
