Hello All,

During migrating my project under new development environment I face
out following issue: ambiguous unqualified 'shared_ptr' name resolution.

For example in .cpp files I using several usings such as:

using namespace std;
using namespace std::tr1;
using namespace boost;

In source code I have something like this:

shared_ptr<SomeType> var = /*...*/;

And for each such line I have an error:
error C2872: 'shared_ptr' : ambiguous symbol
        could be 'c:\program files\microsoft visual studio 9.0\vc\include\memory(1392) : std::tr1::shared_ptr'
        or       'c:\program files\microsoft visual studio 9.0\vc\include\memory(1392) : std::tr1::shared_ptr'
        or       'p:\projects\common\boost_1.36.0\boost\shared_ptr.hpp(165) : boost::shared_ptr'

What I have to do to avoid this errors for boost 1.36 except explicit
share_ptr qualification?

Explicit including of "boost/shared_ptr" or "memory" I already put into
#ifdef/#endif braces. But this didn't help.
