Hello,
I'm using Boost 1.42, IBM XL C++ 10.1, and AIX 5.3.

I'm running into trouble building code that uses Boost.PropertyTree. I get
errors compiling the following code, which works fine on numerous other
platforms:

        boost::property_tree::ptree pt;
        pt.put(LOG_FILE_KEY, props.log_file_name());
        pt.put(LOG_LEVEL_KEY, props.log_level());
        pt.put(LOG_NAME_KEY, props.log_name());
        pt.put(LOG_FILE_SIZE_MAX_KEY, props.log_file_max_size());
        pt.put(LOG_TO_CONSOLE_KEY, props.log_to_console());
        pt.put(MESSAGE_MAX_KEY, props.message_max_size());
        pt.put(SCAN_THREADS_KEY, props.scan_threads());
        std::ostringstream prop_info;
        boost::property_tree::ini_parser::write_ini(prop_info, pt);

The errors, all of which are attributed to the last line of code above, are:

The release notes for Boost 1.42 at
http://www.boost.org/users/news/version_1_42_0 claim that my combination of
OS, compiler and Boost version are supported. I was wondering if anyone
might know of a way around this problem besides not using
Boost.PropertyTree.

Thanks very much for any help,
Will
