The reason this is a problem is because our projects have warnings-as-errors turned on. We are not interested in disabling warnings-as-errors to mitigate the issue because of the far-reaching side effects of such a change.
Has anyone else seen this problem? Are there other potential fixes other than removing all high-ASCII characters from the source files?
Disabling that particular warning?
AFAIK, there is no way in MSVC to disable a specific warning other than using a #pragma, but this is an option only for own code, not third-party libraries which one have no control over (putting this pragma in every file before #including Boost header is cumbersome, IMO).
I also think that since Boost supply generic libraries and not specific GUI, there is no reason for Boost code to go beyond plain low ASCII, *including comments*.
In VC7.1 atleast, see /wd compile option, which from the IDE is accessible from project properties|C/C++|Advanced - Disable Specific warnings. Jeff
