VC++ 6.0 flags the above lines with a conversion error.
Is there any way to resolve this?
Can you just define b and c as boost::shared_ptr<A>?
Hi Jon Thank you very much for the response. Unfortunately this will cause the same problem that I ran into with std::auto_ptr and that is methods funcB and funcC which are exclusive to B and C are not allowed to be called. Take care RZ
