I tried compiling John Maddock's example code from the URL I provided below, and I get the error below. (I run into a similar error with my own code). Any ideas on how to fix this? System setting?

It means that somewhere along the line you handed some template the wrong type. More cannot really be said with the information you have provided.

Using g++ on a GNU Ubuntu Linux 7.04 machine, I am unable to compile the boost example code (saved as test.cpp) at

http://www.boost.org/libs/regex/example/snippets/partial_regex_match.cpp

Although I can compile my own code which does not use boost, I get a lot of garbled output from the example code...part of which is listed below. Any ideas on what is wrong and how to fix it?
