[Boost-users] Problems with boost::format and Visual C++ 7.0

I have trouble compiling code that makes use of the boost::format library.
In particular I get compile errors from basic_format::operator= method (line
90 format_implementation.hpp). If I change the body to look like

if(this == &x)
        return *this;

basic_format<Ch, Tr> x1(x); // These 2 lines used
x1.swap(*this);             // to be 1

return *this;

It compiles.
