Hi,
tow weeks ago I have attached a patch to
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5010
changing fusion::nil to fusion::nil_ for better compatibility with Obective-C and my case an ancient version of LEDA.
Patch attached for convenience.
The questions is how to proceed?
May I commit the patch? Any documentation to change?
Hoping for feedback,
There's also this related ticket: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/6133#comment:5 I was hesitant to have this fix because "nil" is actually part of the API. But, given how pervasive this problem is, it seems the best way to go is to accept the fix and break backward compatibility :( We might have to issue a warning in the docs. I'll apply the patches (change nil to nil_). Thomas, I'm CC'ing you for the heads up. Regards, -- Joel de Guzman http://www.boostpro.com http://boost-spirit.com
