[boost] result_of problem with VC8 (header depdendencies)

From: Sean Huang (huangsean_at_[hidden])

The following code generates a compile error with VC8+SP1:

**************************************************************************
#include <boost/lambda/lambda.hpp>
#if 1 // compiles when set to 0
#   include <boost/utility/result_of.hpp>
#   include <boost/range/functions.hpp>
#else
#   include <boost/range/functions.hpp>
#   include <boost/utility/result_of.hpp>
#endif

#include <boost/function.hpp>
#include <boost/type_traits/is_same.hpp>

typedef boost::function< int ( void ) > FuncType;

BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT( ( boost::is_same< boost::result_of< FuncType ()
>::type, int >::value  ) );

This compiles with intel C++ 9.1.

Change the inclusion order of result_of and functions.hpp and it compiles
with VC8 too.

Looks like a bug in VC8.

Does anybody know any workaround for this besides enforcing the header
order?
