Hi, All, I am having troubles to compile libtorrent 0.9.1 which depends on boost 1.33+. From the error messages, boost does not work very well with Visual Studio 2002. What puzzles me more is that if I just build the boost alone by invoking bjam in the boost directory, I still can not build the whole library because of the spirit section; but all the errors as reported below does not appear. This seems to indicate some compiler options issues. Is there any successful story that you can share with me with regards to VC 7.0 compilation? Any pointers are welcome. The errors I have seem so far at enclosed at the end. The libtorrent only depends on boost:filesystem, boost:date_time and boost::thread.
