Re: [Boost-users] [multi_array] why this does not compile? allocator?

Could you kindly tell me why the following code does not compile? I guess it is an allocator issue, but how do I go further?

#include #include <iostream> using namespace std;

int main () { class test{ int x; int y; }; typedef boost::multi_array array_type; typedef array_type::index index; array_type A(boost::extents[3][4][2]); array_type::extent_gen extents;

return 0; }

compile errors: multiArray.cpp:11: error: template argument for ‘template<class _Alloc> class std::allocator’ uses local type ‘main()::test’

This says it all. Move test out of function scope into a namespace scope. Jeff
