The parameterized_test_test test for Boost.Test is failing for MSVC 6.5, as shown at http://tinyurl.com/lek2w . This can be fixed by just reverting a workaround on boost/test/parameterized_test.hpp which was removed Jan 28th 2006 (v1.6 --> v.1.7) Is it OK to bring the workaround back? If given permission, I can do that myself. Thank you, Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo

Why would I want to do this? We may freely mark this unit test as unsupported on this platform. Gennadiy "Joaquín Mª López Muñoz" <joaquin@tid.es> wrote in message news:44B247AE.C5EAAC0C@tid.es...

Well, to fix a currently failing test... I know you commited to maintain Boost.Test for older compilers *only* in the case of failure within *other* Boost libraries regression tests, so you're right you're not bound by that commitment here...
We may freely mark this unit test as unsupported on this platform.
... and this is the other available option. Whatever you decide to do, I'd appreciate your dealing with the issue so that we get rid of a few more red cells and eventually reach the releaseable status. Thank you, Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo
