Re: [Boost-users] Boost.Regex Build Failure with CPP Locale and No Win32 on WinXP using Visual Studio 2010 SP1

I'm attempting to build Boost.Regex v1.46.1 with the following user.hpp settings:

#define BOOST_REGEX_USE_CPP_LOCALE #define BOOST_REGEX_NO_W32

However, this is failing with the following commands (from the root Boost directory) on WinXP using Visual Studio 2010 SP1:

Any ideas? BTW, ICU is properly identified as not being available. Also, all the previous modules are compiled successfully.

It's a VC++ issue, just: std::use_facet<std::messages<unsigned short> >(std::locale()); will give the error :-( The attached patch works around this, by removing the unsigned short regex specializations from the library - this will work just fine provided you don't intend to use boost::wregex with the /Zc:wchar_t- compiler option. HTH, John.
