[boost] Re: help with iterator_value and BOOST_BROKEN_COMPILER_TYPE_TRAITS_SPECIALIZATION

Hi,

The boost.iterator docs says

On compilers that don't support partial specialization, such as Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 or 7.0, you may need to manually invoke BOOST_BROKEN_COMPILER_TYPE_TRAITS_SPECIALIZATION on the value_type of pointers that are passed to these metafunctions. Can anyone show how this must be used. I have no idea on how to apply this workaround.

See the bottom of http://www.boost.org/libs/type_traits/index.html#transformations It's cross-linked in the Boost iterator docs, in fact. What are we missing? -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
