Libraries, including boost, work with compilers. It should work in your IDE as long as the right compiler is used.

I would like to ask if I can use the boost libraries on the IDE environment of GodeGear RAD studio (C++ builder) 2009? I included the header file but I got some compilation errors. I would like to use the boost libraries to make a connection to the mobile phone (via USB) to send and receive AT Commands to it. The asio part is the best boost solution for my case. Can anyone help to explain how to make boost libraries work in the environment I am working in? Thanks, Evaggelos PLEASE READ: This message is for the named person's use only.
