Has anyone used enum.h from Besser's ENUM++?

[Randy]

Hi,

I downloaded and tried the ENUM++ code from CUJ

http://www.cuj.com/documents/s=8470/cujboost0306besser/

but can't even get it to compile (see following). I
have also downloaded and installed the boost library.
This is using gcc under FC3.

Any ideas on what's wrong?

Randy, we heard you the first three times. If you've received no
response, it means either folks don't know the answer (like I, for
instance) or nobody is interested in sharing (although that is
rather unlikely). Repeating the question is not going to help.

Spend some time trying to figure it out, or wait a couple more days.
Another way is to post to comp.lang.c++.moderated. More CUJ readers
and writers hang out there. But you will need to wait for your
answer there as well, moderators do need time to sift through many
posts and it does introduce some latency.

Victor,

You've misinterpreted the situation - Google news was apparently hosed up
yesterday. I reposted because I never saw *my own* post(s).

Thanks for the pointers, anyway, Victor.

PS Everyone: This problem has been (apparently and thankfully) solved
by MLimber but I can't try it until I get back to work on Monday. Thanks
for all your responses and help. I'll post a follow-up as soon as I can
get things to work.

Also, note that Mr. Besser's email address (be******@yahoo.com) is no
longer valid. Does anyone have an updated address for him?
