According to Microsoft, the code is non-conformant. Visual Studio 2010 allowed the
code to be compiled, but 2012 tightened the requirement. See:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb531344.aspx
(Second point, "Use the template keyword...", but note that they highlighted the wrong keyword).

The simple fix is to add the keyword 'template':

    typedef typename data_type::template array_view<1>::type view_type; //here is the  first error
