If the Standard requires diagnostics for this error (which is something I'm not sure about), then compiling '-pedantic -ansi' should cause g++ to emit a diagnostics. From g++ man page: Some users try to use -pedantic to check programs for strict ISO C conformance. They soon find that it does not do quite what they want: it finds some non-ISO practices, but not all---only those for which ISO C requires a diagnostic, and some others for which diagnostics have been added. A feature to report any failure to conform to ISO C might be useful in some instances, but would require considerable additional work and would be quite different from -pedantic. We don't have plans to support such a feature in the near future. For the program below, in strict ansi mode, EDG Front End issues an error: "incomplete type is not allowed" (and, accordingly, cxx and aC++ issue this error also). g++ 4.2.1 does not issue any diagnostics, even when compiling '-pedantic -ansi'. Again, I'm not sure if a diagnostics is required in this case. template <typename T> struct apply { typedef T type; }; template <typename T = void> struct vector; template <typename Iterator> static typename apply<Iterator>::type call(Iterator) { return vector<>(); } Boris ----- Original Message ----- From: "Markus Schöpflin" <markus.schoepflin@web.de> To: <boost@lists.boost.org> Sent: Tuesday, October 23, 2007 12:49 PM Subject: Re: [boost] [fusion] Getting rid of the incomplete type error forvector Joel de Guzman schrieb:

Confirmed and committed. Jeez! Me smack in the head!!! I did lots of dependency analysis only to learn (from you) that that file is not needed there. IIRC, it was needed at one point in the development, but not anymore. Well, I used a more pragmatic approach: cxx -E ... as_vector.cpp | grep -w vector | less
Well, that's my problem. I do not have access to the compiler. Otherwise, I would've found it already. So, I based my hunt on pure intuition. The compilers that I use regularly does not exhibit the problem.
Uh, I didn't mean to imply any criticism with that. Sorry if I did. I'm wondering if g++ cannot be configured to check for this kind of errors? Anyone knows? Markus _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
