Is BOOST_HAS_INTPTR_TYPES supposed to inform whether there are vendor-provided ::intrptr_t/::uintrptr_t types? If so, I fail to see its utility, since boost::intrptr_t/boost::untrptr_t can be provided universally.
Not if the compiler doesn't HAVE a integral type which can hold a pointer. For example, a compiler for Intel processors with 32 bit longs, no long long, and 16:32 pointers. -- Martin Bonner Martin.Bonner@Pitechnology.com Pi Technology, Milton Hall, Ely Road, Milton, Cambridge, CB4 6WZ, ENGLAND Tel: +44 (0)1223 441434
