#398, "Support for embedded VC++ 4.0",

complains that shared_ptr doesn't compile under eVC++ 4.0 because "'type_info' is not a member of 'std'".
Can someone who uses or has access to eVC++ 4.0 look at it?
The obvious workaround for this is simply
namespace std { using ::type_info; }
Probably, but have you tried it and does it work? It would need to be guarded somehow, I guess?
Alternatively, and I really suggest that, you could use STLport (the 5.x series work pretty well under CE) and get a) a mostly complete C++ stdlibrary and b) several of such workarounds already applied.
I don't need to use anything, just to resolve the ticket one way or the other, and it specifically refers to eVC++ 4.0 in its default configuration. There's no ticket for STLport since it works. :-)
