unfortunately boost.python is unusable on that platform because most of the tests fail at runtime with a stack overflow. The reason is illustrated in the following code sample:
I am using Boost.Python all the time under Tru64 with cxx 6.5, and have been doing so for many years. I guess there must be a difference in how we compile. I am not using bjam but a SCons-based build system. The result of building with the Boost CVS from earlier this morning, including the cxx commands, is here: http://cci.lbl.gov/cctbx_build/results/2005_06_15_0643/tru64_py241_build_log All our regression tests (many) passed.
As for a possible workaround, replacing the overload with a specialization of the function template would work, AFAICT. Would such a patch be accepted?
I'd first experiment with the compiler options. Cheers, Ralf __________________________________ Discover Yahoo! Use Yahoo! to plan a weekend, have fun online and more. Check it out! http://discover.yahoo.com/
