I have the following code:

  tokenizer toks(m_line.substr(0, pos), '*');
  tokenizer::const_iterator it(toks.begin());
  assert(it != toks.end());

Where m_line is an std::string member variable, tokenizer is:

typedef stlsoft_ns_qual(string_tokeniser)<
   std::string
 , char
 , stlsoft_ns_qual(string_tokeniser_ignore_blanks)<false>
> tokenizer;

The code used to compile with 1.7.1... and I hadn't recompiled it with 1.8.1 'till today, and found out that I now get an ambiguous constructor call on the first line. I went to the stlsoft_string_tokeniser.h file, and commented out the constructor at line 400, and my code compiles again.

BTW, the comments for that constructor seem to be leftover comments from what's probably a file search.

Attached is a trimmed down test file
compile with: cl -GX test.cpp

I'm using MS VC++ 6.0 SP 6 / WinXP SP 2

Hmmm. That's not good!

I'll investigate.

Sorry for the hassles.

This is an issue that I've been needing to get sorted in a long while, with a proper STLSOFT_CF_MEMBER_TEMPLATE_OVERLOAD_DISCRIMINATED symbol, or some such, so I guess now's the time.

I need to release a 1.8.2 shortly, as there've been some other fixes, which other libs about to be released depend on, so hopefully I can roll this all in together.

Thanks again for your excellent spotting and diagnosis skills. ;-)

Matthew

Skills... hmm... I just press F7 and the bugs come out on their own! ;-)

LOL!

Ok, I've done the update. I'll attempt to post a patch next week.

Thanks again for the feedback.

Cheers
