Re: [Boost-users] [MSM] problem compiling a functor-guard using a flaginside.

while developing I want to use functors for a guard. The state machine compiles well until I added a function call to the FSM which has a template parameter. Then I always got the following error message while compiling it with gcc 4.4.1.

SubtractionControllerNew.cpp: In member function ‘bool<unnamed>::player_::isCDLoaded::operator()(const EVT&, FSM&, SourceState&, TargetState&)’: SubtractionControllerNew.cpp:175: error: expected primary-expression before ‘>’ token SubtractionControllerNew.cpp:175: error: expected primary-expression before ‘)’ token Does anybody know why this happens and how to circumvent it?

I admit C++ is sometimes full of hard-to-get rules :( Try adding a template keyword: struct isCDLoaded { template bool operator()(EVT const& ,FSM& fsm,SourceState& ,TargetState& ) { //return fsm.is_contained(); // this works well return fsm.template is_flag_active<CDLoaded>(); // Line 175 } }; HTH, Christophe
