Hi, I've just noticed that my usage of boost::augmented_crc has stopped working since upgrading to gcc 3.x. The problem turns out to be with the workaround extra parameter BOOST_ACRC_DUMMY_PARM_TYPE*. The usage (in crc.hpp) looks like this: template < std::size_t Bits, BOOST_CRC_PARM_TYPE TruncPoly > typename uint_t<Bits>::fast augmented_crc( void const *buffer, std::size_t byte_count, typename uint_t<Bits>::fast initial_remainder BOOST_ACRC_DUMMY_PARM_TYPE ); Which doesn't supply a default value for the fourth parameter (i.e. it really requires all four parameters). Curiously, there is a BOOST_ACRC_DUMMY_INIT defined, which would supply a default value, but it is never used. Is this a bug in crc.hpp? *This happens for gcc 3.1 and 3.2 because config/compiler/gcc.hpp sets BOOST_NO_EXPLICIT_FUNCTION_TEMPLATE_ARGUMENTS to work around a known bug in those versions. -- Raoul Gough "Let there be one measure for wine throughout our kingdom, and one measure for ale, and one measure for corn" - Magna Carta
