Interesting. I could wrap the types in something easy to find and then not worry about compiler differences.
Related question, then: why has mpl::print<> never worked for me on gcc?
template<typename E>
void operator()(found_edge<E>) {
typename mpl::print<E>::type foo; // nothing happens
Is there an alternative? I just end up hacking my own errors when I have to debug stuff, but that won't work here.
Thanks,
Gordon
