Re: [eigen] Static asserts in Eigen3 beta1/beta2

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.tuxfamily.org/eigen Archives ]


HI Carlos,

Thanks for your fast answer! However, I fear you got me wrong. I am
aware that I pass a 6-Vector into a function which expects a 5-Vector.
Using beta1, I get a compiler error/static assert, which is what I
expect and I want!

However, the problem is - when using beta2 - I don't get a static
assert. The program only crashes during run-time.
My question is: How can I tell beta2 to trigger static asserts as beta1 did?

Cheers,
Hauke
