What compiler are you using?

Hello...I am trying to build using Xcode 5, which uses LLVM 5.0. Thanks.

Does it support std::atomic?

Yes, I believe it does.

I've added the ability to direct shared_ptr to use an std::atomic implementation by using #define BOOST_SP_USE_STD_ATOMIC. You can find the commit at https://github.com/boostorg/smart_ptr/commit/fed15ad8c50921cbfc0365156e4e4f4454dc1b91. Eventually, this implementation will be selected by default when std::atomic is autodetected to be present and functional, but for now, you can apply this patch, define the macro and see if that helps.

Running clang Apple LLVM version 5.0 (clang-500.2.79) (based on LLVM 3.3svn) like this:

clang++ -fvisibility=hidden" "-fvisibility-inlines-hidden" "-DBOOST_SP_USE_STD_ATOMIC" "-std=c++11" "-stdlib=libc++"

I get the following error:

I get the same with clang 3.4 for Windows; looks like a clang bug, as MSVC and g++ have no problems with this code.

What is the actual .cpp file that fails with the above error?

This patch:

https://github.com/boostorg/smart_ptr/commit/fbb851097fa800fa9f19d6936906af7777d90215

should take care of the issue.
