I note that there are some new failing tests for circular buffer on some platforms
 
http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/circular_buffer.html
 
on MSVC  noncopyable_movable_noexcept_t is causing trouble
 
base_test.cpp
C:\boost_regression\trunk\boost\boost/circular_buffer/base.hpp(694) : error C2558: struct
'noncopyable_movable_noexcept_t' : no copy constructor available or copy constructor is declared
'explicit'
        C:\boost_regression\trunk\boost\boost/circular_buffer/base.hpp(673) : while compiling class
template member function 'noncopyable_movable_noexcept_t
*boost::circular_buffer<T>::linearize(void)'
        with
        [
            T=noncopyable_movable_test_t
        ]
        c:\boost_regression\trunk\boost\libs\circular_buffer\test\common.ipp(2160) : see reference
to function template instantiation 'noncopyable_movable_noexcept_t
*boost::circular_buffer<T>::linearize(void)' being compiled
        with
        [
            T=noncopyable_movable_test_t
        ]
        c:\boost_regression\trunk\boost\libs\circular_buffer\test\common.ipp(2236) : see reference
to class template instantiation 'boost::circular_buffer<T>' being compiled
        with
        [
            T=noncopyable_movable_test_t
        ]
C:\boost_regression\trunk\boost\boost/circular_buffer/base.hpp(697) : error C2558: struct
'noncopyable_movable_noexcept_t' : no copy constructor available or copy constructor is declared
'explicit'
 
 
ON gcc and Clang 
 
there are warnings and failure
 
Running 60 test cases...
../libs/circular_buffer/test/common.ipp(2303): error: in
"check_containers_exception_specifications": check
boost::has_nothrow_constructor<circular_buffer<int> >::value has failed
 
Can any experts shed light on this?
 
I do not believe that the underlying circular buffer code has changed recently.
