Re: [Boost-users] shared_ptr compile error ms vc++ 8

you misunderstand....I was answering a prior question posted by bringiton
asking how to diagnose the specific source code location of such errors when compiled using 
vc++ 8... not a question regarding whether or not such code is in error...

My posting was an example confirming for bringiton that the error output produced by vc++ 8 specifically also referenced the module/line number that attempted to instantiate the shared_ptr template, rather than just the  error location inside the shared_ptr header. 

Although I am now regretting posting.... ;)

Andrew
