Our program just installed version 69 of Boost and I am running into a compile issue that I am not sure how to resolve. Following is the associated section of C++ code that I am unable to figure out the changes to get it to compile. int filedes[2]; if ( pipe(filedes) == 0) { using namespace boost::iostreams; stream<file_descriptor> results(filedes[0], close_handle); .... .... } The last provided line of code does not compile with a no matching function for call to 'boost::iostreams::file_descriptor::file_descriptor(int&, file_descriptor_flags&)' error. I noticed in the version of the boost file_descriptor.hpp loaded and being used the following exists: #ifdef BOOST_IOSTREAMS_WINDOWS file_descriptor(int fd, file_descriptor_flags); #endif The associated application attempting to be built and deployed is only for servers running the Linux operation system so BOOST_IOSTREAMS_WINDOWS is not enabled, causing the above constructor not to be available. The other constructor available is file_descriptor(handle_type fd, file_descriptor_flags); but I can not figure out how to generate a detail::file_handle from the available int file descriptor generated from above pipe command. Will it cause any issues enabling BOOST_IOSTREAMS_WINDOWS so the required constructor will be available? Thanks ahead of time for your time and feedback. Russell West
