@StefanS52u1

VS2022 does not compile the following code snippet , if any member is a void pointer. Are there any workaround?. I did not check, this behavior with clang or gcc.

BOOST 1.84
VS 17.10.3

Example:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <boost/pfr/core.hpp>
#include <boost/pfr/core_name.hpp>
#include <boost/pfr/traits.hpp>

struct LongPointerTest {
long* OwningThread;
};

struct VoidPointerTestFailsToCompile {
void* OwningThread;
};

int main()
{
static_assert(boost::pfr::get_name<0, LongPointerTest>() == "OwningThread");
auto name = boost::pfr::get_name<0, VoidPointerTestFailsToCompile>();
}
