The code sample just compiled on my system (VC 2005 pro) no problem so it is your set up, sorry but don't have the expertise to go further than that... -----Original Message----- From: boost-users-bounces@lists.boost.org [mailto:boost-users-bounces@lists.boost.org] On Behalf Of Noud de Beijer Sent: 08 February 2008 10:49 To: boost-users@lists.boost.org Subject: [Boost-users] Unresolved symbol in boost::filesystem lib with MSVC++ 2005 Pro Hi all, I'm using boost version 1.34.1 (downloaded from http://www.boost-consulting.com/) with Visual C++ 2005 Professional. Everything worked fine (even boost::filesystem) until I started using boost::filesystem::directory_iterator. I'm trying to compile the example below and get a unresolved symbol: "unsigned int boost::filesystem::detail::not_found_error". *) Of course, I'm linking against the boost filesystem library (if I don't I get even more unresolved symbols). *) I do define BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB but if I don't I still get the unresolved symbol. *) Under Linux the same example compiles, links and runs fine! *) I checked and the symbol exists in the library. *) I'm using the correct runtime *) If I comment out the boost::filesystem::directory_iterator line (so only boost::filesystem::exists()) then the example compiles, links, and runs fine! Can anybody point me in the right direction? Is this a problem with my Visual Studio setup? Or is this a problem in the boost consulting stuff? Regards, Noud <code> #include "boost/filesystem.hpp" #include <string> int main() { std::string myDirString="C:\\"; boost::filesystem::exists(myDirString); boost::filesystem::directory_iterator myIter(myDirString); return 0; } http://uk.promotions.yahoo.com/forgood/ _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
