[boost] [move] problem with msvc and BOOST_MOVABLE_BUT_NOT_COPYABLE

27 May 2010

      I get an linker error (private: __thiscall X::X(class X &) is unresolved symbol) with msvc-9.0 on XP.
AFAIL (docu) implementing the copy-ctor isn't required and passing values from static memeber functions are allowed.

What's wrong?

#include "stdafx.h"

#include <boost/move/move.hpp>

class X
{
private:
    BOOST_MOVABLE_BUT_NOT_COPYABLE( X);
public:
    X();
    static X create();
    X( BOOST_RV_REF( X) other);
    X & operator=( BOOST_RV_REF( X) other);
};

X::X() {}

X X::create()
{
    X x;
    return x; // passing value form static memeber-fn
}

X::X( BOOST_RV_REF( X) other) {}

X & X::operator=( BOOST_RV_REF( X) other)
{ return * this; }

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
    X x( X::create() );
    return 0;
}
