[Boost-users] [multi_index]Got warnings in VC7.1

Hi,
   I used multi_index in the simple way:  int<->int unique mapping. But in 
VC7.1, warning level 4, I got many warnings for: 
\boost_1_33_1\boost\multi_index\detail\ord_index_node.hpp(453): warning 
C4510: 'boost::multi_index::detail::ordered_index_node<Super>' : default 
constructor could not be generated.

I have read the doc of multi_index, and tried to turn off "\Gm", but the 
problem is still. When compiled it in VC8.0 under warning level 4, these 
warnings disappeared. It seems that, the template support in VC7.1 is not so 
good. My test code is listed in the end of this article. How to get rid of 
them? (...>_<... The webpage argues me about top-posting, so I cannot put them 
on).

Another thing is about compile time. If multi_index is employed, the compile 
time will be greatly increased (slower 10 times in VC7.1, 3 times in VC8.0). 
Furthermore, the message generated by compiler is extremely long. I usually get 
lost in it. ^_^ Is there any way to simplify them? Such as using struct T:S 
rather than typedef in multi_index library?

Finally, I have a question on the design of
template<class Class,typename Type,Type Class::*PtrToMember>
struct member;
In practice, the user of "member" should provide the SAME type of PtrToMember 
to the template arguments(Class & Type). If feeded with some wrong types, 
errors message for the hell will be sent out. ^_^ Is there any way to improve 
it? Such as simply member<T* PtrToMember>, and let the compiler to deduce the 
type of this memberpointer?

Thank you.
