I've just started on a project which is Windows CE based, using Microsoft Embedded Visual C++ V3 and V4, and I'm having trouble using boost. There are several #defines in the code that cover Windows CE (e.g. BOOST_NO_ANSI_APIS), so somebody must be using boost successfully.
So, my first question is: what compiler(s) are people using for Windows CE?
I'm using those that come with eVC4 and VC8 (VS2005). eVC4 comes with versions 12.00 to 12.02. Note: version 12.00 is bug-to-bug compatible with the one from VC6, the other two don't differ much either. All of them are cross-compilers (except the one for the emulator) so some additional backend-problems apply with ARM and MIPS (see e.g. STLport's documentation, which has official CE support). VC8 comes with compilers versions 14.x, which are already pretty good and should be able compile all of Boost (though not necessarily do so due to platform and library restrictions). [...]
Ulrich, Thank you very much for this detailed explanation! It's very informative. Cheers -- Mateusz Loskot http://mateusz.loskot.net
