Hi folks,
Consider the following code (which distilled from a real world example):
#include
#include
#include <utility>
#include <vector>
typedef boost::optional<int> data_type;
typedef std::vector vector_type;
vector_type func()
{
vector_type vv;
return move(vv);
}
If I compile this code using Boost 1.49 on Visual Studio 2010, or on a recent version of g++ (e.g. 4.7.1) which supports some C++11 features, the code fails to compile, complaining about ambiguity between std::move and boost::move. Strangely, the code compiles fine with Apple Clang version 3.1.
Is there a way to work around the compilation problem which doesn't involve explicitly qualifying the calls to move? I'd prefer to use argument-dependent-lookup. Removing the includes of boost/move.hpp is not possible. In the real world example, that header is included indirectly.
I did notice that if I define the macro BOOST_MOVE_USE_STANDARD_LIBRARY_MOVE, the compilation errors disappear. Is this the correct approach for compilers which support std::move? I find it odd that this macro isn't already defined for such compilers.
Thanks in advance!
Jon
