Re: [boost] integral_promotion.hpp & old EDG problem

The new integral_promotion.hpp doesn't compile with the old EDG238-based MIPSpro 7.3.1 compiler (SGI, IRIX). This breaks our Boost.Python build. However, with the simple patch below the build is OK again. I'd love to maintain the MIPSpro Boost.Python build, but it is not worth serious work. Therefore the patch is simply #ifdef'ing out the two promotion header files for this specific platform. Are there any objections against this approach?

Ideally nothing in Boost.Python should be including type_traits.hpp; we should be using the fine-grained headers instead. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
