Error description

• ERROR DESCRIPTION:
  The below testcase demonstrates an issue with
  recognition of const and const int in the compiler.
  The compiler gives this error message at compile time for a
  header in boost:
  1540-0218 (S) The call does not match any parameter list for
  "objects::function_object".
  $cat test_case1.orig.cpp
  # include "boost/python.hpp"
  using namespace boost::python;
  struct A { A(int); };
  struct B { B(const int); };
  void test()
  {
      class_<A>("A", init<int>() ) ;
      class_<B>("B", init<const int>() ) ;
  }
  

Local fix

• Remove const keyword in the source.
  

Problem summary

• PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Incorrect recognition of int & const int
  
  USERS AFFECTED: The compiler may instantiate 2 templates with
  the same type when the template is instantiated with an
  argument that has a cv-qualifier on a function type
  

Problem conclusion

• The problem has been resolved.
  

Temporary fix
