Anyway, at the moment the only tests on EDG are those for Intel Compiler what makes it difficult to isolate EDG typical problems. E.g. there have been some problems in boost.test for a long time because of overloading issues where EDG works more correct than all the other compilers: http://tinyurl.com/5g65r (this special one has is caused by Genaddiy's changes after 1.32).
I believe this is a compiler/STL problem. Here is snippet of offending code: template<typename T> struct print_log_value { void operator()( std::ostream& ostr, T const& t ) { // Show all possibly significant digits (for example, 17 for 64-bit double). if( std::numeric_limits<T>::is_specialized && std::numeric_limits<T>::radix == 2 ) ostr.precision(2 + std::numeric_limits<T>::digits * 301/1000); ostr << t; // by default print the value } }; If I try to print C literal this function is instantiated with char [N]. And if fails to instantiate std::numeric_limits<char [N]>. Shouldn't numeric_limits work for any type? Gennadiy
