The compilation errors are quite strange.
Hi. Boosters, I'm not too sure about this particular error( However I'll bet its a Concept error... whatever... Its certainly an error in the library implementation),. This is an example of mislocation that often occurs in C++. (I often find the compiler outputs error messages fom standard libraries, only due to an error in my own code.). The XConcept Check and enable_if( and mpl) libraries could help with this, if the library developer has sufficient understanding, and if they are used. As it stands I dont believe that boost libraries take error checking adequately seriously. It would be useful if somebody picked up on error-checking in general and wrote a developers tutorial. I am confident that, with designed-in error checking for all boost libraries, the errors cited here( for instance) could be replaced with something much more useful. For degree students... a useful topic... so take this up, combining theory of programming with prcatical day-to-day (economic)coding. reagrds Andy Little
