[Boost-users] Bug in boost/graph/transitive_closure.hpp

From: Todd A. Gibson (tgibson_at_[hidden])

Bug:
The header file boost/graph/transitive_closure.hpp contains an
unscoped call to not1().  This function is defined in both the std
namespace and the boost namespace (via boost/functional.hpp).  If
boost/functional.hpp is included either directly or indirectly (e.g.,
via boost/multi_array.hpp) Then any attempted use of
transitive_closure() will not compile due to the ambiguity.

Solution:
Scope the call to not1 in boost/graph/transitive_closure.hpp:
std::not1

Note:  This bug can be easily be reproduced by including
boost/functional.hpp (or boost/multi_array.hpp) To the example
program transitive_closure.cpp .  

Thanks,
