Hi, After downloading and unzipping the Regex library with the -d option, I ran nmake -fvc6.mak on the command prompt.However, I am getting an error message saying "Variable MSVCDIR not set". I checked the VcVars32.bat file to verify that the variable MSVCDIR has been set properly. Any ideas/suggestions about what I am doing wrong would be most appreciated. Thanks, Fauzia

If it says it's not set it's not set, try executing: set to see exactly what your current environment is. John Maddock http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/john_maddock/index.htm

You have to execute vcvars32.bat yourself before running nmake in the same
command processor session.
Here is a batch file I run:
set path=%SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32;%SYSTEMROOT%
call "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Bin\vcvars32.bat"
c:
cd "\Utilities\Boost Libraries\boost_1_28_0\libs\regex\build"
nmake -fvc6.mak > out.txt

Hi, Does anyone know if there is a unit test class being developed in boost? The test doc mentions it is planned and it is said to be under development when I search the archive. But it seems no where to be found. Anyone can help out (for the class files and doc)? Thanks. chen
