Which of course, is not the case :-> The problem does not appear to be with the code. >The error messages from various date_time library fails for both Intel >and VC++ 6.0 are similar. Here is the Intel message: > >D:\boost\site-RC_1_30_0\boost/lexical_cast.hpp(137): error: no operator >"<<" matches these operands operand types are: >std::basic_stringstream<wchar_t, std::char_traits<wchar_t>, >std::allocator<wchar_t>> << const std::basic_string<char, >std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char>> return stream << input; This suggests that the compiler has deduced wchar_t as being the appropriate type for the stream when it should be char. This relies on rather straightforward full template specialisation, which would seem odd to get wrong. >Plus Robin Hu's posting: > >>A word on the lexical_cast_test.cpp: everything will be ok if you >>commented all tests about std::wstring and wchar_t with >> >>#ifndef BOOST_NO_STD_WSTRING >>#endif > >Both seem to indicate a wstring/wchar_t problem. The problem is related to wstring and wchar_t, but is not related to compiler/library support for them.
