A quick summary of what your recent changes did for CW8, in case the metacomm tests don't soon:

* test_delete_pointer pass. * test_demo_auto_ptr pass. * test_deque pass. * test_diamond pass. * test_map pass. * test_non_default_ctor pass. * test_non_intrusive pass. * test_optional pass. * test_private_ctor pass. * test_split pass. * test_vector pass.

I only tested the previous failures. And for some the metacomm tests show a failure for things were previously fixed. Also it looks like some of the failures are now different, meaning you fixed something only to have it fail on something else.

Oh yeah - sometimes you get more than one issue per test - sort of a free bonus. Several compilers/platforms/combinations have problems with wide character i/o. These are CW, Comeau, Darwin/GCC. I'm looking at this - I believe it may be an error in the utf8 codecvt facet. (interestingly, this doesn't occur with the column marked "CW" hmmmm) I have a problem with my own cwpro9 installation in that for some programs I get multiply defined symbols at link time. The resulting exectutable goes kind of haywire. The column marked "CW" doesn't show this problem and I hopeful that it will pass almost 100% on the next round of tests. I suspect there is issue with build/jamfile for cwpro8/9. Test_list has an issue with slist.hpp and iterators of all things. This effects all CW versions. Its possible its an slist issue on all platforms for all I know. As far as CW is concerned - I'm smelling blood and feel that I'm closing in on final victory. Anyone who wants to take a look at any of the above issues is free to do so. Robert Ramey
