It is unclear from your example what “doesn’t work.” Are you having a compilation issue? Is an exception getting thrown?
It is also unclear where end_itr is defined. Could you provide a more complete example?

I apologies for not being clear. The following pastie has the code nicely formatted ... http://pastie.org/8082749 ... The directory iterator where I specify the path location as a string literal works. I can printout the contents of the directory. The directory iterator with the path specified as part of a vector of strings does not. It throws a no such file or directory error. The vector itself is properly defined and verified to have the correct contents. I am using boost 1.53.0. end_itr has been defined in the for loop. I am working off the boost filesystem tutorials.
