Newbie question regarding complation with Visual Studia .NET

Hi, I am using STLport-4.5.3 and I am also using Microsoft Visual C++ .NET (Microsoft Development Environment 2003 Version 7.1.3088)as IDE for my project. I am trying to use regex in my application but I have some doubts and I am not able to link my application with boost_1_33_1. * Where should STLPORT_PATH should point to. I have set it to "C:\STLport" where STLport contains directories such as "STLport-4.5.3" etc. Is that correct? * Then I switched to directory c:\boost\boost_1_33_1\libs\regex\build * Then I run "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\bin\vcvars32.bat" * Then I run the following command nmake -f vc71-stlport.mak. It works OK. * When I run the following command "nmake -fvc71-stlport.mak install" I got an error as follows: Building Boost.Regex without ICU / Unicode support Hint:set ICU_PATH on the name command line to point to your ICU installation if you have one. NMAKE : fatal error U1073: Don't know how to make '"C:\STLport\stlport\string"' Stop. Any help will be highly appreciated!

* Where should STLPORT_PATH should point to. I have set it to
C:\STLport where STLport contains directories such as "STLport-4.5.3" etc. Is that correct?
Nope, for the makesfile set it to the directory containing the specific STLport version you want to build against - it should have a subdirectory called "stlport" containing all the std lib headers. So probably: SET STLPORT_PATH=C:\STLport\STLport-4.5.3 would do the trick. HTH, John Maddock.
