Building Boost with Intel compiler 7.0 and STLPort on windows

Hello. Does anyone know whether it is currently possible to use Boost with the Intel Compiler v7.0 and the latest STLport, in windows? It seems I still have to hack files in date_time/posix_time (specifically time_formatters.hpp), to reduce my compile errors. Like defining BOOST_MSVC and then undeffing it, before line 43 of this file is processed. Otherwise I get ambigious operator definitions. Also, is it possible to actually build the date_time library with the Intel compiler and STLport at the same time? Why is there a msvc-stlport toolset but no intel-stlport toolset? O; another thing. Has anyone perhaps built boost in MSYS before? If MSVC + Intel setup is giving me too much hassle, I am going to try and build boost in MSYS. Greetings, Andre

Actually I believe it should work. The meta-comm regressions show this combination as passsing. http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-win32_metacomm.html Are you using 1.30.2 or CVS? Jeff

It is, see http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-win32_metacomm/developer_sum..., although the combination _was_ a little non-trivial to setup.

There going to be, some time in the future, meanwhile I would suggest you to use the one available from http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-win32_metacomm/patches.html (please ignore the notes in meta_readme.txt, though - they are out of date). HTH, Aleksey
