with the current cvs-version (7/23/2004) i can't build the thread library with stlport 4.5.3 and msvc60.
I use the following bjam command: bjam "-sTOOLS=msvc-stlport" "-sSTLPORT_PATH=D:\develop\STLPort" "-sSTLPORT_VERSION=4.5.3"
and get the following errortext: ....\boost-23072004\libs\thread\build\..\src\barrier.cpp(21) : error C2440: 'type cast' : 'char [22]' kann nicht in 'class _STL::invalid_argument' konvertiert werden Quelltyp konnte von keinem Konstruktor angenommen werden, oder die Ueberladungsaufloesung des Konstruktors ist mehrdeutig
Sorry about the german error-text. it's something about: can't convert char[22] to 'class _STL::invalid_argument' I don't know that wrong about: throw std::invalid_argument("count cannot be zero.");
because the StlPort defines invalid_argument as:
class _STLP_CLASS_DECLSPEC invalid_argument : public logic_error { public: invalid_argument(const string& __arg) : logic_error(__arg) {} # ifdef _STLP_OWN_IOSTREAMS ~invalid_argument() _STLP_NOTHROW_INHERENTLY; # endif };
Is that the complete definition?
yes. there is no explizit or something else.
With the microsoft stl everything compile fine. (bjam "-sTOOLS=msvc")
Google tells me that this "Quelltyp konnte von keinem Konstruktor angenommen werden, oder die Ueberladungsaufloesung des Konstruktors ist mehrdeutig"?" translates to "Source type could be accepted by no constructor, or the dissolution of overloading of the constructor is ambiguous." From this, I would guess either that the invalid_argument
i found the english errortext in the msdn: () Compiler Error C2440 'conversion' : cannot convert from 'type1' to 'type2'
ambiguous." From this, I would guess either that the invalid_argument class has another constructor that you didn't show that is making the conversion ambiguous, or that the string class either has no constructor that takes a single char* argument, or else that constructor is marked "explicit", or else there are multiple constructors and the choice between them is ambiguous.

the ms-stl defines invalid_argument with explicit and // CLASS invalid_argument class invalid_argument : public logic_error { public: explicit invalid_argument(const string& _S) : logic_error(_S) {} virtual ~invalid_argument() {} protected: virtual void _Doraise() const {_RAISE(*this); } }; there must something differend. does nobody use msvc and stlport and the current boost-version?
