but it still doesn't work in strict mode. I guess because it relies on an implicit cast from int to the type, but I'm not sure. I don't fully understand why the operators library works and this doesn't.
Because those friend functions can only be found via ADL, and naturally ADL doesn't look in the namespaces of classes to which the arguments can be implicitly converted.
Well that's embarassingly simple. Thanks for that.
From a quick search in boost/config, the compilers supported by boost
I guess there is no way of making compile time constants work with compliant compilers... But then compliant compilers don't need the compile time constants typeof in the first place, as they can use Arkadiys implementation. that does not support partial template specialization, are: VC 6.5 and 7.0 Sunpro 5.2 and earler MPW VC 6.5 and 7.0 are covered by my compile time constants implementation. The question is whether the other two compilers are compilant enough to have implemented ADL correctly :) -- Peder Holt
