Still haven't updated to beta 6, but using beta 4:

1. c_str_ptr_inserter is missing #include <stlsoft_iterator.h>
2. interface_ptr's operator= didn't compile, there's a miss-typed 
SysConstCast or something like it.

But, like I said I still haven't tried this with beta 6.

BTW, the website still says "beta 5" in the downloads page (though the 
link for the .zip file is correct).

Fixed. Thanks


 2. interface_ptr's operator= didn't compile, there's a miss-typed SysConstCast
or something like it.


Any chance of more info?

FYI: that files not change substantially in quite a while, although an earlier
version did have those casts (from the 
Synesis source codebase) in.

Ok. I'll fix that.

With beta 4, the code for operator= was SyConstCast, which would match what
you say about it being from Synesis, I guess.
Now it says:

<code>

class_type t(const_cast<class_type&>(rhs).m_p);
swap(t);
return *this;

</code>

The m_p shouldn't be there, after all, class_type is interface_ptr<T> not T*
(which is what m_p is). Removing m_p compiles fine.
(this is for beta 6)

I read the code wrong. In any case, compiling fails as it is, and compiles 
fine when I remove m_p, the "why" for it as I stated above is just wrong, 
though...

I suppose so, I just recompiled everything recently (with beta 9) and no 
problems seemed to come up... Thanks...
