Could you kindly tell me why the following code does not compile? I guess it is an allocator issue, but how do I go further? <div><br></div><div><div>#include &lt;boost/multi_array.hpp&gt;</div><div>#include &lt;iostream&gt;</div>

<div>  typedef array_type::index index;</div><div>  array_type A(boost::extents[3][4][2]);</div><div>  array_type::extent_gen extents;</div><div><br></div><div>  return 0;</div><div>}</div><div><br></div><div>compile errors: </div>
