[Please do not mail me a copy of your followup] I'm using boost 1.52. If you see this thread on stack overflow: <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9669071/warning-c4503-when-using-pragma-warning-around-boost-includes> You'll see a comment down at the bottom where someone has increased the warning level for their project and they are getting tons of these C4503 warnings when using boost includes. I have verified on my project that if I don't change the warning level and don't specifically disable this warning project-wide, then including using boost in my project does not generate the warning. However, if I increase the warning level beyond the default, to 3 in my case whereas the poster on stack overflow had used 4, then I get the warning. I, like the commenter on stack overflow, would like to know if there's a boost-friendly way to tell boost to disable the warning for boost headers where the boost authors have decided it's innocuous, while still retaining the high warning setting for my own code. Any suggestions?
