To whom it may concern, When compiling Boost code using the Sun compiler, the Boost documentation makes this statement. Quote: When using this compiler on complex C++ code, such as the Boost C++ library, it is recommended to specify the following options when intializing the sun module: -library=stlport4 -features=tmplife -features=tmplrefstatic End-Quote: I don't understand the effect of the 'tmplrefstatic' argument on the compiled code. Why is that option recommended, ie. What does it do? I searched the web for a couple of hours for an explanation and couldn't find an answer to my question. I'm hoping somebody on this list knows because Boost is recommending it. Thanks in advance, -Sid Sacek
