Re: [Boost-users] abort when constructing filesystem::path object

You can either construct the "hello world" path with the different checker or set it by default: boost::filesystem::path::default_name_check(boost::filesystem::native); I suppose spaces aren't allowed by default to give maximum portability. On Tue, 30 Nov 2004 11:30:34 +1100, Richard Wolf wrote:

Hi

I'm trying to use the filesystem library, and I get an abort when trying to initialise a path object with a string containing a space.

#include #include <iostream>

int main() { boost::filesystem::path p1("hello"); std::cout << p1.string(); boost::filesystem::path p2("hello world"); std::cout << p2.string();

}

when run, this prints:

helloAborted

I couldn't find anything saying that the string path constructor can't contain a space.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

Using gcc 3.3.4 on Debian.

thanks,

Richard
