Hi All , I am using boost in Opendiameter code using boost libraray, but i am not running into problems! Details: Tool(compiler) : MSVC60 OS : Windows XP Boost Library Version: boost_1_33_1 Error : :\projects\diameter\opendiameter-1.0.7-h\include\framework.h(255) : error C2352: 'boost::shared_ptr<class AAA_GroupedJob>::get' : illegal call of non-static member function d:\projects\diameter\supporting softwares\boost_1_33_1\boost\shared_ptr.hpp(257) : see declaration of 'get' d:\projects\diameter\opendiameter-1.0.7-h\include\framework.h(255) : while compiling class-template member function 'class AAA_GroupedJob &__thiscall AAA_JobHandle<class AAA_GroupedJob>::Job(void)' memory_manager.cxx How it is used in framework.cpp (file) : template <class JOB> class AAA_JobHandle : public boost::shared_ptr<JOB> { public: AAA_JobHandle(JOB* job) : boost::shared_ptr<JOB>(job, AAA_JobDeleter()) {} JOB& Job() { return (JOB&)*boost::shared_ptr<JOB>::get(); } }; I seem to be doing some thing wrong with the above. Any help on how to go about resolving the problem would be appreciated!
