19// PFTO version is used to specify the last argument of certain functions
20// Function it is used to support  compilers that fail to support correct Partial
21// Template Ordering
22#include <boost/config.hpp>
23
24// some compilers can use an exta argument and use function overloading
25// to choose desired function.  This extra argument is long in the default
26// function implementation and int for the rest.  The function is called
27// with an int argument.  This first attempts to match functions with an
28// int argument before the default one (with a long argument).  This is
29// known to function with VC 6.0. On other compilers this fails (Borland)
30// or causes other problems (GCC).  note: this

32#if defined(BOOST_NO_FUNCTION_TEMPLATE_ORDERING)
33    #define BOOST_PFTO long
34#else
35    #define BOOST_PFTO
36#endif
37
38// here's another approach.  Rather than use a default function - make sure
39// there is no default at all by requiring that all function invocations
40// have a "wrapped" argument type.  This solves a problem with VC 6.0
41// (and perhaps others) while implementing templated constructors.
