Hi,
trying to use fast_pool_allocator in Boost 1.35 fails with MSVC 9.0; it worked well with MSVC 8.0. The following code fragment shows the error:
[...]
(From what I've seen digging through the code, it seems to me that the allocator gets rebound from int to void, which does not work for fast_pool_allocator.)
This very problem was reported a couple of weeks ago: http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2008/04/135444.php The reason is what you point out, fast_pool_allocator cannot specialize for void. Please consult the aforementioned thread as it contains a workaround proposal that you might consider using (basically, wrapping fast_pool_allocator into a conformant allocator class). After the initial report I've been investigating and I am now not so sure whether this can be pinpointed as a fast_pool_allocator bug: the standard is not 100% clear about whether an allocator must be instantiable for void (strictly speaking, whether a conformant allocator must be rebindable to void). Consequently, I'll probably be conservative and remove the void instantiations for the next release of Boost.MultiIndex. Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo
