c++.stlsoft - [STLSoft-1.9.44] allocator problem with class clipboard_scope under

Hi Matthew,

Compiling the program below with Visual C++ 8 gives an error.

In function set_data_or_deallocate_and_throw_ HANDLE (being deallocated) is 
incompatible with the allocator's char* type.

     Changing lines 269-271 from:

269 private:
270    template <ss_typename_param_k A>
271    void set_data_or_deallocate_and_throw_(UINT fmt, HANDLE hData, A& 
ator) stlsoft_throw_1(clipboard_scope_exception)

    to

269 private:
270    template <ss_typename_param_k C, ss_typename_param_k A>
271    void set_data_or_deallocate_and_throw_(UINT fmt, C* hData, A& ator) 
stlsoft_throw_1(clipboard_scope_exception)

seems to solve the issue.

Cheers, Martin.

Hi Martin

Thanks for this. It'll be incorporated into the next release.
