Hi,
I'm trying to work around a very specific problem in the Dinkumware
libraries that ship with MSVC6 and 7: iterators do not define fully
symmetric const/non-const interoperability. So for example, the
following won't compile:
deque<int> d;
bool x = d.begin() == ((deque<int> const&)d).begin();
To detect this case, I'm using something like:
#if !defined(BOOST_MSVC_STD_ITERATOR) && (!defined(_CPPLIB_VER) || _CPPLIB_VER > 310)
...
#endif
But it really seems as though there should be a better way.
#if !defined(_YVALS) || _CPPLIB_VER > 310
...
#endif
is simpler, but somehow unsatisfying. It seems as though _YVALS could
go away at any moment. Can/should we add something to the config, like
e.g. BOOST_DINKUMWARE_STD?
