Hi Matthew,

Compiling the winstl::clipboard_format_sequence program below with VC8 fails on the iterator_category being unavailable.

   including <iterator> and replacing

Line 164   class const_iterator

   with

Line 164   class const_iterator : public std::iterator<std::forward_iterator_tag, value_type >

solves the problem.

I cannot (yet) express the solution in STLSoft wording, but I'm sure you can ;-)

Cheers, Martin.

#include <winstl/clipboard/clipboard_format_sequence.hpp>

#include <algorithm>    // std::copy
#include <iterator>     // std::ostream_iterator
#include <iostream>     // std::cout, std::endl

int main()
{
   typedef winstl::clipboard_format_sequence::value_type value_type;

   winstl::clipboard_format_sequence formats;

   std::copy
   ( formats.begin()
   , formats.end()
   , std::ostream_iterator< value_type >( std::cout, "\n" )
   );
}

Thanks Martin

The fix for this'll be in the next release
