I just upgraded to boost 1.31. I use filesystem with MSVC 6.0, but I don't use the jamfiles to create my .dsp and .dsw files. I just created simple projects myself. It worked previously, but now when I try to include the filesystem.dll file, I get the error
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "libboost_filesystem-vc6-mt-gd-1_31.lib"
Do you have any suggestions?
This is a guess but... You're likely running afoul of the autolink feature that puts a #pragma comment(llinker,...) into your code referencing "libboost_filesystem-vc6-mt-gd-1_31.lib". I'm guessing that that's not what your .dsp file called the filesystem dll. Just add /nodefaultlib:libboost_filesystem-vc6-mt-gd-1_31.lib to your linker settings and you should be fine (assuming you did correctly add the export library from the DLL you built to the link). -cd
