Re: [Boost-users] How do i only get Regex??

I'm using VC++ 8 and I am trying to use the boost regex in order to use regular expressions. I can get it to work, but it requires 60mb of files! What is the simplest, smallest subset of files that I need to get this to work. If there is a way to only have to import a dll or lib, that would be ideal. I would like it to be separate and standalone from the massive file collection that comes with boost as a whole.

You can use bcp to extract a subset of Boost: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_38_0/tools/bcp/bcp.html Of course your final executable will be the same size regardless of whether you extract out Boost.Regex or not :-) HTH John.
