So given this header.

template <
          QSTYPE type,
          typename T,
          template <typename ELEM, typename = std::allocator<ELEM> >
          class CONT
    >
    CONT<T> quicksort(CONT<T>);

// inside the main file.
// I decided a function that takes vector of integer and returns a vector of
integer.
typedef boost::function<std::vector<int>(std::vector<int>)> sortfunc;

#include <boost/assign/std/vector.hpp>

using boost::assign::operator+=;
std::vector<sortfunc> function_list;
    // quicksort random
    function_list += (&algocpw::quicksort<algocpw::QSTYPE(algocpw::RANDOM),
int, std::vector>),

    // selection sort
    (&algocpw::selection_sort<int, std::vector>),

I get the following errors.

./cs512/c++/sortingMain.cpp(63) : error C2896:

Where did "deque" come from.. i never included deque.
