When including thread.hpp (1.52) I get the error below. Same setup but Boost 1.51 works ok. Does anybody know what is the issue ? thanks # g++ -c test.cpp In file included from /usr/include/boost/thread.hpp:24:0, from test.cpp:1: /usr/include/boost/thread/future.hpp:139:26: error: expected ‘;’ at end of member declaration /usr/include/boost/thread/future.hpp:139:32: error: ‘BOOST_THREAD_NOEXCEPT_OR_THROW’ does not name a type /usr/include/boost/thread/future.hpp:139:19: error: looser throw specifier for ‘virtual const char* boost::future_error::what() const’ In file included from /usr/include/boost/thread/exceptions.hpp:21:0, from /usr/include/boost/thread/pthread/thread_data.hpp:10, from /usr/include/boost/thread/thread.hpp:17, from /usr/include/boost/thread.hpp:13, from test.cpp:1: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.2/../../../../include/c++/4.7.2/stdexcept:70:5: error: overriding ‘virtual const char* std::logic_error::what() const throw ()’
