I've chased the issue down to the line: #elif defined(BOOST_MSVC) && (BOOST_MSVC == 1300) && defined(BOOST_DINKUMWARE_STDLIB) && (1/*BOOST_DINKUMWARE_STDLIB == 1310*/) which I've modified on MY system as you see. apparently BOOST_DINKUMWARE_STDLIB is NOT equal to 1310 because that clears up the e

Aloha, I've just uploaded the newest version of the container algorithms, that is, the "old" std algorithms overloaded to work on containers ( ~ arrays, STL containers, iterator pairs ). The current code works with commeau 4.3 and gcc 3.2, but it won't work with vc7 and probably not a bunch of ot
