Re: [Boost-users] [boost][multiprecision] compile error with gcc 4.8.4

Can you clarify your approach going forward? When this compiles (other versions of gcc, visual studio) it works as intended. It's not a huge deal for me whether this is fixed for 1.62, but I definitely don't want it to be expressly forbidden going forward.

The float->int conversion fails for me with as expected with msvc and current gcc versions. Of course the error message should be a lot better. The ideal solution would be to overload iround/itrunc for multiprecision integer target types, but of course that's not possible. I guess an explicit cast is just about acceptable, but let me think about this. John.
