I recently downloaded boost libraries to use the smart_ptr libraries. It appears to be working. But several other libraries, as shown by the compiler report is not. I also noticed that last run date is 9 months ago. Is anybody working on getting boost to work on aCC? I would be very surprised if nobody has tried before since HP is a top-tier vendor, but I couldn't find any useful information from the archives. If not, I would like to take a stab at getting it to work. I have contact with HP aCC techs to fix problems if it is a compiler problem. I'm particularly interested in getting the libraries regex and spirit (for now, more later) to work. I did a search on the boost archive and the last reference to this subject was written back in August 14, 2003:
I'd love to see regex working with aCC if it's humanly possible, if you want to mail me privately with any queries you may have that would be fine - especially if you have a working relationship with HP personnel - we've managed to persuade quite a few other vendors to work with us, and even to use Boost for their internal regression tests, HP is one of the notable exceptions so far :-| John.
