Problem with Boost.Thread and HP aCC

29 May 2002

      We are trying to compile Boost.Thread with HP aCC (with -AA option).

In
boost/function/function_base.hpp
the compiler give us this error:

Error 20: "function_base.hpp", line 37 # '<type name>' expected before
'>'.
    template<bool> struct truth {};

We are using Boost 1.28.0.

The line 37 in function_base.hpp has:
template<bool> struct truth {};

We have found two ways to make it work:

1.-
  Comment out the line !!

2.-
  Replace with:
    template<bool a> struct truth {};

We think that the compiler is wrong but,
is ok to comment this line?

In earlier versions of this file this line doesn't exists, 
and it is never used, so it is necesary?

Regards,
Raúl.
