Hi all, I have this request from a colleague. Can anyone help me shed some light on his issue?:
I did not use the boost::shared_ptr in quite some time and I was surprised to find out that, more recently, the shared_ptr _requires_ RTTI to be enabled. I did some reading on the websites and groups and while I admit that the new version is more flexible, powerful, etc, I would have thought that they also left a switch in for the old behavior which did not require RTTI. In some projects, RTTI does not add any benefits and people obviously turn it off.
Is anybody aware of such a "switch" that will allow somebody to use boost::shared_ptr without RTTI?
