Dinkumware used in Borland BDS 2006 contains hash containers but Boost.Config does not know about it.
dinkumware.hpp could be updated:
#if (defined _CPPLIB_VER) && (_CPPLIB_VER >= 402) # ifdef __BORLANDC__ // BDS 2006 STL has hash containers # define BOOST_HAS_HASH # endif #endif
Possibly this is true for other systems than BCB but I do not have access to these.
I tried this with VC8 which also has Dinkumware's version of the hash containers, but it breaks the only lib currently using BOOST_HAS_HASH (serialization), so I'm not going to enable the macro for now. BTW it's name is a little misleading: it should be more like BOOST_HAS_SGI_HASH because it indicates the presence of a hash_map compatible with the original SGI version. I'm going to cc this to Robert, in case he thinks serialization could/should support the Dinkumware hash containers. John.
