Unfortunately, for correct work of that trait in C++03/C++98 with `BOOST_MOVABLE_BUT_NOT_COPYABLE` macro some changes for Boost.Move are required. Boost.Move requires the following patch applied to to `BOOST_MOVE_IMPL_NO_COPY_CTOR_OR_ASSIGN` in boost/move/core.hpp : {{{ #ifdef BOOST_NO_CXX11_DELETED_FUNCTIONS #define BOOST_MOVE_IMPL_NO_COPY_CTOR_OR_ASSIGN(TYPE) \ private:\ TYPE(TYPE &);\ TYPE& operator=(TYPE &);\ + public: \ + typedef int boost_move_no_copy_constructor_or_assign; \ + private: \ // #else }}} Some tests for that case already exist in `boost/type_traits/is_copy_constructible.hpp`, I'll uncomment them when this patch will be applied. Motivation: Without that patch it is impossible to have a nice implementation of `move_if_noexcept`, that is going to be used by Boost.CircularBuffer and may be used by other containers. P.S.: If you wish and have no spare time, I can apply this patch and add some tests to Boost.Move" Patches closed Boost 1.55.0 move Boost 1.54.0 Showstopper fixed
