#3422: Bad workaround for BOOST_NO_STDC_NAMESPACE in codecvt_null.hpp
---------------------------------------+------------------------------------
 Reporter: andysem | Owner: ramey
     Type: Bugs | Status: new
Milestone: Boost 1.41.0 | Component: serialization
  Version: Boost 1.40.0 | Severity: Problem
 Keywords: codecvt_null msvc stlport |
---------------------------------------+------------------------------------
 I'm trying to compile the 1.40 version of the library with MSVC 7.1 &
 STLPort 5.1.4 and having these errors:

 {{{
 boost\archive\codecvt_null.hpp(30) : error C2039: 'codecvt' : is not a
 member of 'operator``global namespace'''
 boost\archive\codecvt_null.hpp(30) : error C2873: 'codecvt' : symbol
 cannot be used in a using-declaration
 }}}

 The problem is twofold.
 1. There is namespace std opening missing after the #if
 defined(BOOST_NO_STDC_NAMESPACE) condition. Likewise, the closing brace
 should be before the matching #endif.
 2. Since STLPort does import codecvt into its namespace (which aliases
 std), the !defined(UNDER_CE) condition is needless and causes my problems.
 I don't know if there are any platforms with codecvt in the global
 namespace, but MSVC 7.1 with STLPort is not one of them.

 I attached the patch with the both fixes.
