the boost.lockfree testsuite requires the following trivial patch, which specifies the namespace for enable_if and disable_if. i've applied a similar patch to boost.parameter some time ago [1].
as it is trivial, is it ok to commit to trunk or shall i submit it to trac that the thread/exception maintainers can apply it?
Maybe I'm missing something but what's the relevance to Boost Exception here?
it is a fix/workaround for boost.thread and boost.exception. all it changes is to use boost::enable_if instead of enable_if
Isn't better to understand why ? It's not normal that enable_if inside a nested namespace needs to have boost:: specified and while we are at it why boost::enable_if and not ::boost::enable_if ?
feel free to look into it: * check out trunk * go to libs/lockfree/tests * change the files: move the inclusion of boost/test/unit_test.hpp to the front of the file (or apply attached patch) * compile the testsuite * get a deeper understanding of the situation i'm not planning to dig deeper into these libraries, myself good luck, tim
