boost::multi_array resize error

[Przemysław_O_]

Hello,

I try to compile simple example from http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_61_0/libs/multi_array/doc/user.html#sec_resize

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <boost\multi_array.hpp>

int main()
{
    typedef boost::multi_array<int, 3> array_type;

    array_type::extent_gen extents;
    array_type A(extents[3][3][3]);
    A[0][0][0] = 4;
    A[2][2][2] = 5;
    A.resize(extents[2][3][4]);

    return 0;
}

and get following error with Intel C++ 2016 Update 3 under VC++ 2015 Update 2:

Without Intel C++ it works fine.

Thanks Przemek for reporting this problem. I will try to reproduce this issue.

Hi, thanks for looking into this. I have also seen this error quite a few times through our codebase. I am using  Intel C++ 2016 Update 3, VC++ 2015 Update 2 and Boost 1.60. I can confirm that the error doesn't occur with the Microsoft v120 and v140 compilers.

Hi Anoop,

were you able to reproduce that issue. Have you gat any clue or better workaround?

Best regards
