Missing lib with Boost::Regex
Hello everybody, I'm having some problems with using Boost's Regex in MS Visual Studio 2010. I've included the header file and downloaded the "bjam.exe" file, which I have run and it generated some lib and obj files. After including the newly generated files in VS2010, when I try to compile, I get the following: "fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_regex-vc100-mt-gd-1_43.lib' " I've inspected the bjam.exe generated files and it appears to have a lib file 'libboost_regex-vc100-mt-1_43.lib', but not 'libboost_regex-vc100-mt-gd-1_43.lib'. After doing some more googling, I have found a number of related questions, but failed to find an answer, although it seems to be a common problem. Can you please help me solve my problem? Thanks in advance, p.s. If i rename the lib file, it works, at least for now. However, it is a 'Release' version and therefore I can't using it in VS in debugging mode, meaning that I can only BatchBuild and create Release versions of my program, although I also need to create debug ones. p.s.s. My first Boost Mailing List post! p.s.s.s. I've just found out that VS10 has TR1 support, so I can TR1 Regex, which is Boost's Regex :) but I am still wondering how could of I solved the above stated problem? It's bound to happen with some other Boost library.

The command for generating the library you need is bjam --with-regex debug link=static threading=multi In Christ, Steven Watanabe
