I don't understand what 3 might entail. Are these fixes to aligned_storage already done, and how can they possibly cause clients to require being patched?
They're only done in the sense that for a while we had two aligned_storage classes in cvs: a strictly conforming TR1 version and the old version: I removed the new version just to get things working again, after consultation with Eric Friedman the plan was to deprecate the old version eventually. However.... on reflection it's too close to release, so I'll do what Peter suggested, and just make sure that aligned_storage::type conforms to the TR, even though aligned_storage itself contains all kinds of "enhancements". That won't affect any existing code BTW.
Right now, the following code will not compile for me: typename aligned_storage < sizeof ( MyClass ) >::type storage; this was formerly: aligned_storage < sizeof ( MyClass ) > storage; but I added the ::type after reading the above message. Am I doing something wrong, or do I just need an up to date version of the library? I am using VC 7.1 and get the error: error C2039: 'MyClass' : is not a member of 'boost::aligned_storage<size_>' -Jason
