Hi,

We've been using boost v1.36 in Visual Studio 2005 for a few years now. I'm attempting to upgrade our projects & solutions to build in Visual Studio 2010 & thus I've upgraded to boost 1.47.0. However I'm getting an error when trying to compile a project which uses some boost functions

Full text of the error message is as follows:

1>  ASIMNET.CPP
1>c:\code\inc\boost\optional\optional.hpp(346): error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'm_storage'
1>          c:\code\inc\boost\optional\optional.hpp(345) : while compiling class template member function 'void boost::optional_detail::optional_base<T>::construct(const std::locale &)'

The only references to boost in ASIMNET.CPP are as follows:

#include <boost/math/special_functions/round.hpp>

  translation[X] = boost::math::round( (translation[X]/TILEWIDTH) ) * TILEWIDTH;
  translation[Y] = boost::math::round( (translation[Y]/TILEWIDTH) ) * TILEWIDTH;

Any help will be most appreciated.

Thanks,
