[Boost-users] Spirit Example does not build

Hi,

I have been trying to get one of the spirit examples, regex_convert to build
using VC6, service pack 5. I am using boost 1-30.2 for this exercise. I get
the following error message.

error C2664: '__thiscall std::deque<char,class std::allocator<char>
>::std::deque<char,class std::allocator<char> >(unsigned int,const char
&,const class std::allocator<char> &)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from
'class std::istreambuf_iterator<char,struct std::char_traits<char> >' to
'unsigned int'
        No user-defined-conversion operator available that can perform this
conversion, or the operator cannot be called

I was wondering if this was a known issue, or if there was something else
that I needed to do.

cheers

John
