#3198: compiler warnings in VC9
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  kfriddile@…          |       Owner:  nasonov     
     Type:  Bugs                 |      Status:  new         
Milestone:  Boost 1.40.0         |   Component:  lexical_cast
  Version:  Boost 1.39.0         |    Severity:  Problem     
 Keywords:                       |  
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 lexical_cast issues the following warning under VC9 at warning level 4:

 c:\redsword\third_party\boost\1_39_0\boost\lexical_cast.hpp(1159) :
 warning C4702: unreachable code

 I find it odd that this warning is allowed through when the comments a few
 lines up (line 1139) explain a workaround that was done to squelch a
 different warning at warning level 4.  Can this warning please be
 suppressed for those of us who must work under warning level 4 with
 warnings as errors turned on?
