Hi,. Steve Really sorry for not unswering till now.
I just upgraded to Boost 1.33 and a set of my unit test routines written against boost::test 1.32 have suddenly started reporting compile errors.
[...]
c:\temp\boost_1_33_0\boost\test\impl\framework.ipp(305) : error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'long' to 'boost::unit_test::for _each::static_any_t' Reason: cannot convert from 'long' to 'const boost::unit_test::for_each::static_any_base' No constructor could take the source type, or constructor overload resolution was ambiguous

I've just reverted back to 1.32 for now, but can you tell me why this happens?
Problem occures with FOREACH facility (it's more portable, supposedly, variation of BOOST_FOREACH). I've tuned this facility a lot and it seemed to work on most compilers. Now I do not have an access to VC7.0 anymore, but regression test did not show an errors. Something with VC7.0 + STLport combination. If you could locate an issue yourself (use boost/libs/test/test/foreach_test.cpp as test engine) I could apply the patch. It should be something trivial, since this facility works almost everywhere. If not I will try to address it myself before next release. Gennadiy
