Hello, i have found the following instructions to build Boost.Log:
Boost.Log can be compiled by:
1. Getting 1.42 source release 2. Unpacking Boost.Log on top of it 3. Following the usual procedure:
.\bootstap.bat .\bjam --with-log
I did the above starting from a 1.44 source release. This worked out well. But when trying to use the library I get a lot of linker errors in my project: 1>Linking... 1>libboost_log-vc90-mt-gd-1_44.lib(text_file_backend.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "class boost::filesystem2::file_status [...] (Very long error messages containing decorated names. The above is just the start) Linker path settings should be correct, since the linker correctly finds libboost_log-vc90-mt-gd-1_44.lib. Also the project is using other Boost libraries (Asio, shared-ptr, bind, posix-time, etc) without problems. Anyone managed to compile and use Boost.Log on MSVC 2008 and can help? Thank you, Lars Ruoff
