Does MSVC10 Visual Studio 2010 support explicit C ++ conversion operators

Question

Does Visual Studio 2010 MSVC10 support explicit conversion operators or the secure bool idiom that still needs to be implemented?

This code does not compile:

explicit operator bool() const { return Traits::invalid() != value; } 

Compiler error : error C2071: foo :: operator bool ': illegal storage class
