How do i get theese three things to work together nicely? I cannot find any help for this (and i know it had to be asked before).

//#include <iostream> #include int main () { boost::spirit::rule<> p = *(boost::spirit::real_p); return 0; } I get linker errors if i uncomment the iostream include

STL Port is built to use its own streams. Works fine in other examples not using boost. I looked through the boost user config but didnt see anything relavant to throw boost a bone that im using STL Port.

Any help would greatly be appreciated!

Perhaps you need to link to an STLPort library?

If you want more than a guess, you should post one or two of the link errors you're getting.

Actually, linker errors was incorrect. I get c:\Documents and Settings\Ray Hilton\My Documents\Development\boost_1_30_0\boost_1_30_0\boost_1_30_0\boost\shared_pt r.hpp(284): error C2039: 'type_info' : is not a member of '_STL'

Thats with all the default settings for a empty console program, except multi-threaded debug runtime library and using the code above.

Someone recently had this problem who was mixing old-style (e.g. ) and new-style (e.g. <iostream>) headers in the same project. You might try preprocessing your code and looking for suspicious #includes. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
