Sorry, you are right. I forgot that all operators are overloaded or defined in std namespace. But still it would be nice as hint in the documentation, that this operator should be from std namespace. With Kind Regards, Ovanes Markarian On Mon, June 26, 2006 13:25, Peter Dimov wrote:

No, this is not correct (even though it works with VC) and has nothing to do with boost::variant.
The only correct place for this operator<< is in namespace std. Of course you aren't supposed to put things there, but...
