i've also tried to compile some other examples - they work, like the rest of my program; maybe there is something wrong with my installation - but i don't know what. it is also really strange that mingw accepts partial_date [in my app] which is derived from year_based_generator but refuses to work with year_based_generator*.

I'm stumped.

I tried upgrading to gcc/g++ 3.4 (I extracted these into my original mingw installation) and am unable to duplicate your errors.

If you can spare the time, try downloading a fresh boost_1_32_0 archive and attempting a print_holidays compile with that source tree. I'm wondering if your source tree may have been corrupted somehow.

That would be my guess at this point too. The fact that the example fails means something is really off. I just compiled 1_32 with mingw dev-cpp with compiler version 3.3.1. The regression tests also succeed for your combination. More than likely it would have to be something messed up in boost/date_time/date_generators.hpp -- so you could try just getting the latest version of that file and replacing it.

i'll try a complete reinstallation of the boost-libraries in the next few days. i think it is more likely that the library isn't correctly installed because i had the same problems with 1_31_0. it is eaven possible that there is something wrong with my mingw installation. antonio
