Dear Friend

my program is

typedef std::vector<int> vec_name;

struct network { boost::variant net_id; };

typedef std::vector<network>network_list;

// create the instance for vector

network_list net_list;

for(int i=0; i

ERROR is error: cannot convert ‘boost::variant >’ to ‘unsigned char*’ in assignment

You can use boost::apply_visitor [1], but I have no idea how want to map a std::vector< std::string > or std::vector< int > (your error message is inconsistent with your code, AFAICT) to an unsigned char* (I can only presume that odtone::mih::null -> null pointer). - Jeff [1] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_49_0/doc/html/boost/apply_visitor.html
