Hello,

I install and test boost on my computer since two weeks. And I have much
problems.
Actually I test random with the code indicated on
http://www.boost.org/libs/random/index.html
The code is 
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/random.hpp>

int main ()
{
        boost::mt19937 rng;                 // produces randomness out of
thin air
                                      // see pseudo-random number generators
        boost::uniform_int<> six(1,6);       // distribution that maps to
1..6
                                      // see random number distributions
        boost::variate_generator<boost::mt19937, boost::uniform_int<> >
           die(rng, six);             // glues randomness with mapping
        int x = die();                      // simulate rolling a die
}
More simple, there is not.
And, the error messages on intel c++ 8 are :
Compiling...
C:\BOOST_1_31_0\boost/integer_traits.hpp(129): error: class
"boost::integer_traits<wchar_t={unsigned short}>" has already been defined
  class integer_traits<unsigned short>
        ^
compilation aborted for D:\X Mes Documents X\Mes Programmes\VisualC++
6\random boost 1\random-1.cpp (code 2)
Error executing cl.exe.

random boost 1.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

Would anybody have already seen it? errors on template class who have
multiples definitions on the header "integer_traits.hpp". The compiler don't
accept surcharge of template class. Perhaps there is an option for the
compiler.
What do you think about this ?

After this problem, I test with msvc++6 sp5 + service pack processor 5
and...
Compiling...
random-1.cpp
C:\BOOST_1_31_0\boost/random/uniform_01.hpp(34) : fatal error C1001:
INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR
        (compiler file 'msc1.cpp', line 1794) 
         Please choose the Technical Support command on the Visual C++ 
         Help menu, or open the Technical Support help file for more
information
Error executing cl.exe.

random boost 1.exe - 1 error(s), 1 warning(s) 
it gives me an error fatal with no information on Technical Support of VC6.
I ask me if the problem is linked at the service pack 5 for msvc and service
pack 5 for processor  (
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/downloads/tools/ppack/download.aspx ),I
have install. 
Someone have installed this pack ?
Thanks for your responses.
