Re: [Boost-users] boost::iequals bug in 1.35?

Pavol Droba skrev:

Hi,

char* is not longer supported as a default range type by the range library. you can use const char* literals only.

You can pass char* only if you convert it to a range using as_literal or as_array helpers, that are part of the range library.

We have to change this since thare were ambiguieties in char* usage.

Best regards, Pavol.

The following code was working in boost 1.34

char smurf_name[512]; strcpy(smurf_name, "Schtroumpf"); bool samething= boost::iequals("Schtroumpf", smurf_name); assert(samething);

but it no longer works in 1.35.

Pavol, why don't you use as_literal() internally in the string library? Would that not preserve the behavior? -Thorsten
