Re: [Boost-users] Compile errors including boost/regex.hpp

# /usr/local/include/boost/regex/v4/regex_format.hpp:849:1: error: macro "test" passed 2 arguments, but # takes just 1

Any ideas why this occurs? Maybe it's because I'm not including -lbooost_regex as a compile option? I specified it as my "myproject_LDADD" macro in Makefile.am so I assume g++ knows when to use it.

Yes you need to add -lboost_regex as a *linker* option, but the error is occuring because someone has defined "test" as a macro which is a very very bad idea! Try making boost/regex.hpp the first #include. HTH, John.
