Attention: here, you are not defining a variable, but declaring
a function. (Isn't C++ declaration syntax horrible.) You need
to do something so that at least one of the "arguments" can't be
interpreted as a parameter declaration; an extra pair of
parentheses will do the trick:

    std::vector< std::string >
                        data(
            (std::istreambuf_iterator< std::string >( inputFile )),
            (std::istreambuf_iterator< std::string >()) ) ;

(Formally, it's sufficient to add the parentheses to just one of
the arguments, but I like orthogonality.)

Did that compile for you ( using std::string in
istreambuf_iterator!! )? (which compiler?)

You're right, I didn't try it:-). You'd need
std::istream_iterator for std::string. Don't know what I was
thinking of.
