a number of platforms currently fail to compile these tests with an error message similar to the following:
cxx: Error: ../boost/thread/pthread/thread.hpp, line 169: more than one instance of overloaded function "boost::bind" matches the argument list: (ambovlfun) function template "boost::bind<R,F,A1>(F, A1)" function template "boost::bind(R (T::*)(), A1)"
The code in question reads:
template <class F,class A1> thread(F f,A1 a1): thread_info(make_thread_info(boost::bind<void>(f,a1))) { start_thread(); } Would the thread maintainer please decide on a fix and then commit it?
Could you try adding the following overload of the thread constructor to boost/thread/pthread/thread.hpp template <class T,class R,class P1,class A1> thread(R (T::*f)(P1),A1 a1): thread_info(make_thread_info(boost::bind<void>(boost::mem_fn(f),a1))) { start_thread(); } If that makes the problem go away, I'll commit the change.
