Re: [boost] boost::typeof, MSVC7.1 & 8.0, and precompiled headers

Argh...
The following snippet doesn't compile on MSVC8.0 if stdafx.h (the 
precompiled header) includes "boost\typeof\typeof.hpp", and works if not...
(The project is otherwise a default-settings console app)

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "boost\typeof\typeof.hpp"

#include BOOST_TYPEOF_INCREMENT_REGISTRATION_GROUP()

class Class {};

BOOST_TYPEOF_REGISTER_TYPE(Class)

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { return 0; }

and it dumps these (quite meaningless) errors:
error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '<'
error C2059: syntax error : '<'
error C2065: 'V' : undeclared identifier
error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '{'
error C2447: '{' : missing function header (old-style formal list?)
error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '<'
error C2059: syntax error : '<'
error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '{'
error C2447: '{' : missing function header (old-style formal list?)

Maybe you can save me, once again, Arkadiy? :)

Cheers,
