Hi, Could anybody please apply that patch or suggest what can I do (or whom to contact directly) to get this fixed? BTW, I wonder how it's possible that most of the bugs were introduced in one commit half a year ago and nobody even noticed - it would suffice to run this app on any platform to get obvious errors while on Windows it wouldn't even compile. Am I really the only person using this tool? :P I've also found another minor problems: - when building it, "$(BOOST_ROOT)\tools\regression\build\bin" directory is created but it's not marked with "ignore" in SVN; - char_xlate functor only translates '/' character in URLs while on Windows the character used is '\' (and it also causes problems in some browsers). The solution is very simple - add "|| c = '\\'" in line 75. I'm attaching a patch file combining the previous fixes and the '\' translation. Best regards, Robert

Hello,
I've stumbled upon several bugs in tools/regression/src/library_status.cpp when compiling on Windows with gcc 4.5 and msvc 10.0. I'm attaching a patch file with all necessary fixes. The bugs are:
- using path::native() instead of path::string() - the former is wstring on Windows, - calling path::string() twice to obtain begin() and end() iterators - on Windows path::string() returns a temporary, so the iterators point to different objects, - using whole path for each node in build_node_tree() instead of only the directory name, - using whole path instead of only the test name in do_table_body(), - the link to links file is relative to test directory, not to the results output directory, - generation of closing "</a>" without opening "<a>".
Best regards, Robert
