Noncopyable gives compiler warning when used in DLL interface

[Fredrik Orderud <forderud@…>]

Inheritance from boost::noncopyable in a DLL interface class with the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 compiler gives a warning C4275: non dll-interface class 'boost::noncopyable_::noncopyable' used as base for dll-interface class.

It would be great if there had been a straight-forward method for disabling this warning. One possibility could be to disable it in boost/config/user.hpp, but noncopyable.hpp does unfortunately not include this file.

Could it be possible for noncopyable.hpp to either include boost/config/user.hpp (through config.hpp) or provide another means for disabling this warning?

Thanks in advance, Fredrik Orderud

+1 - it is tough to get through the code review process with the #pragma warning disable ... I guess for now I will have to roll my own noncopyable

Please could you provide a patch?

As or r83833 boost::noncopyable now already include boost/config/user.hpp (via boost/config.hpp). This allows me to (globally) disable warning C4275 in boost/config/user.hpp, which is good enought for me.

It's ok for me to resolve the issue.
