* Revert "removed deprecated std::unary_function from various conversion functors"
This reverts commit 593aafab5a7aba86f14df5f9a14a53fc4353bb00.
Without this commit boost\libs\numeric\conversion\include\boost\numeric\ conversion\detail\converter.hpp is broken on MSVC C++17. (See https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/12972) This is still fixed in develop, does anyone know why the changes were reverted? Can we get someone to actually recommit a fix? Is numeric conversion abandoned? It doesn't look like it has been touched in over a year. Thanks
I don't know why it have been reverted, but I wonder: is it supposed to work with C++11 and previous if you don't have these inheritance? Should it be conditional? I suspect it might have been the reason.
This is hitting me as well, and I'd like it fixed, in fact I think I asked about the revert on GitHub, but haven't got a reply. There was some discussion about it here: https://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2017/04/234575.php but apparently no resolution :( --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com
