I have been using boost::statechart in a c++/cli application since 2009 with no problems. I have also built several boost libraries as managed(/clr) with no difficulty. To their credit, Microsoft has done a remarkable job allowing native code to seamlessly run in a managed assembly. There are some standard library headers that won't build but MS generally provides c++/cli equivalents.

hi

quick question: could boost headers (.h) be complied in c++/cli project?

I was told, no by someone, but need further feedback to be sure.

Thanks

I've been using boost in a mixed c++/cli just fine for quite some time. The only problem I had was the pool library. It's been a while, but I believe just merely including the header refused to link. I didn't actually need it in that project, so I never bothered to investigate why or if there was a workaround. Otherwise I use boost regularly without problems. -- Bill
