leads to a long warning message (second attachment), culminating in

This warning can be prevented by splitting the line into two lines as follows:

Replace: reinterpret_cast(&in_buffer.data)->~Functor();

with: functor_type* p = reinterpret_cast(&in_buffer.data); p->~Functor();

I patched my local version of Boost in order to prevent these warnings.

Hope This Helps, Justin

Justin, thanks for the hint! I'll give it a try and will probably file a ticket if it works out :-) Regards, Roland
