Missing typename in range compat2_test

I've commented this testcase in the jamfile last week; I don't understand why it's still executed on some configurations! Stefan

Right now I have given this fix a low priority since I'm focusing on the documentation and more important tests. I made the test in the first place to see which compilers that did not choke on it; it might have been a sligh abuse of our test setup, but it is the only way to gain access to a lot of compilers. So please don't worry too much about this test. br Thorsten

I don't see yet what to fix here: compat2 differs from compat1 _only_ in the missing 'typename'. [This was also the reason for me to remove this test during you absence.] What actually does the information about how compilers treat a missing 'typename' tell you? Stefan

I was interested in the combined result. Eg, it might happen that one compiler did not pass compat1 while passing compat2. br Thorsten

It's not executed. Those results you see are old. The persons running those tests need to delete the results for those tests. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com - 102708583/icq
