What is the status of the Phoenix msvc port? The documentation seems to indicate that it's possible but not necessarily forthcoming. MSVC port? Phoenix works on MSVC and always has, AFAIK.
Well, I just tried a little smoke test with msvc 9, and it appears to work. However, from the documentation at http://tinyurl.com/6pkmtu:
"On the other hand, although Phoenix is not yet ported to MSVC, Phoenix uses the same tried and true implementation techniques used by the Spirit framework. Since Spirit has been ported to MSVC by Bruce Florman (v1.1) and by Raghav Satish (v1.3), it is very likely that Phoenix will also be ported to MSVC."
:-) That refers to old MSVC 6.5 and 7.0. Phoenix was written before MSVC 7.1. There was a failed attempt to port Phoenix to the old MSVC compilers. That part of the docs should be updated. Regards, -- Joel de Guzman http://www.boostpro.com http://spirit.sf.net
