Dear Roland,

When compiling project Sqlpp11Sqlite3SelectTest, I get these errors in VStudio 2017 version 15.3.2:

 error C3546: '...': there are no parameter packs available to expand (in sqlpp11/statement.h(166))

 error C3546: '...': there are no parameter packs available to expand (in sqlpp11/statement.h(173):

error C2903: '_base_t': symbol is neither a class template nor a function template (in sqlpp11/statement.h(258)

Any ideas?

Dear Juan,

This is a bug in VS2017 15.3, see

https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/95983/c-vs152-153-regression-in-variadic-template-argume.html

as reported by @egorpugin, see also here

rbock/sqlpp11#181

I see no way to work around this.

Best,

Roland

Dear Roland,
Well, we will have to wait I guess!!

Dear Roland,
The code compiles in the latest preview of Visual Studio (v 15.5.0 preview 5)...
Still have to wait until they merge this to a definite release but one can work (at least)...

Thanks for the update Juan!

That is very good news.

Microsoft has finally corrected the compiler bugs that created this issue. Version 15.5.0 of Visual Studio 2017 can be downloaded from https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads where you should select Free Donwload in the Visual Studio Community Edition section.
