Public bug reported: Description: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS Release: 16.04
The compare operator for uuid is broken for non standard (always return false). This for example breaks using uuid as keys in std::map which uses less than comparator. The example program generates 2 non standard uuid then compares them with < > and ==. All three returns false Then it creates a std::map<uuid,string> Insert a string in the map using the first uuid as key, then try to access the second key value with .at It should raise an exceptio instead it returns the value from the first key This bug has been fixed in boost 1.60 ** Affects: boost1.58 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1708308 Title: libbost 1.58 fails to compare non standard uuid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/boost1.58/+bug/1708308/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
