[boost] [fusion] Tuples partly broken in cvs HEAD?

24 Oct 2006

      Some of my code that uses the TR1/Tuples code has stopped working.  Sorry 
don't know when, haven't built this particular program in a while.  The test 
case is:

#include <boost/tr1/tuple.hpp>

std::tr1::tuple<double, double, double, double, double, double, double>
 foo(int i)
{
   return std::tr1::make_tuple(i, i+1, i+2, i+3, i+4, i+5, i+6);
}

int main()
{
   foo(2);
}

Which generates the errors:

        No user-defined-conversion operator available that can perform this 
conversion, or the operator cannot be called

Looks like the definition of make_tuple is out of synch with tuple?

It works OK with the release branch BTW.

Thanks,  John.
