Thanks for help, I would like to build (compile and link) some examples from the filesystem directory. Can anyone tell me how to do this? In which file I can find the compiler and linker flags used by bjam for vc-7_1-stlport build? Perhaps if I will not be able to link this will indicate some errors in the compiler flags I am using in my program.

This is the program taken from the tutorial I am trying to compile/link: http://www.boost.org/libs/filesystem/example/simple_ls.cpp

From below I can't see which of the filesystem lib variants it's trying to link to. Somewhere in your compile log you should have a "linking to ..." mentioning the filesystem lib. Could you post that.

"_WIN32_WINNT=0x0501" /D "WINVER=0x0501" /D "_STLP_DEBUG" /D "_MBCS" /FD

Well during building bjam sets: /D "_STLPORT_DEBUG=1", but I can't remember if the value matters.

Linking... main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: class _STL::basic_string

The "_STL::..." is a sign that it's not using STLport somehow. Because it should be using something like "stlp_std::...". -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - Grafik/jabber.org _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users -------------------------------------------------------- If you are not an intended recipient of this e-mail, please notify the sender, delete it and do not read, act upon, print, disclose, copy, retain or redistribute it.
