Below is my sample code to use boost string algorithm in VS2005, using
platform Windows Mobile 6 Professional SDK.
{code}
#define BOOST_NO_STD_LOCALE
#include <boost/algorithm/string.hpp>
using namespace std;
void main(){
  vector<string> strList;
  string str = "aaa, bbb, ccc";
  using namespace boost::algorithm;
  split(strList, str, is_any_of(" ,"));
}
{code}
The compilation fails, because Windows Mobile 6 Professional SDK
doesn't have <locale> file.
I found "boost\algorithm\string\classification.hpp" this file always
includes <locale> file, even that BOOST_NO_STD_LOCALE is defined
before.
Is there any way to use string algorithm without the existence of std
locale file?
StringAlgo is highly dependant on the std::locales. So there is no
way yo use full functionality without locales.

You may use parts of the library, that are not locale dependant,
like find/replace algorithms, but you will need to include the specific
.hpp files.
