Hello,<div><br></div><div>I&#39;m using the container_device example listed here (The full example near the bottom):</div><div><a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_39_0/libs/iostreams/doc/tutorial/container_device.html">http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_39_0/libs/iostreams/doc/tutorial/container_device.html</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>I modified this class to exist in the global namespace (i.e. not in boost::iostreams::example). It does not compile under MSVC9. I get the following errors. I have NO idea what the compiler is trying to tell me.</div>
