[Boost-users] max value by the number of bits

Hi there, is there a general template for calculating the max value by the number of bits. GIL right now uses the following template: template <int K> struct unsigned_integral_max_value : public mpl::integral_c {}; This code gives me some compiler errors with clang 3.2. for K = 31, for instance. Ideally I would like to take K up to 64. A small fix gets me up to K = 63 template <int K> struct unsigned_integral_max_value : public mpl::integral_c {}; Is there a better way in boost? Thanks, Christian
