Description (last modified by René Rivera) 

The problem is that Boost.Format doesn't work(raise 
exception) with /vd2 compiler option on Microsoft 
Visual Studio 2005. Is it possible to use Boost.Format 
with this compiler option?

I don't need that already. I have needed this compiler option to use the Gtkmm with Visual Studio, but it works 
pretty without this option.
The quote from the MSDN:
"/vd supports incorrect behavior in an early version of Visual C++, and is no longer needed."
So, I think, there is no such problems in the current versions of Visual C++.

Unless someones absolutely needs this MSVC /vd2 compiler option, and gives all kinds of details on what fails, there is no plan to provide a specific workaround for it !
